PADDY CHAYEFSKY
Take the second right onto Sharon Drive and continue past Mohegan Road. On the right you will see a marker to the "Community Center of Rye." Several yards past this marker on the right, set in an open area by itself, is a monument to author and playwright Paddy Chayefsky. A prolific and distinguished writer of television drama during the 1950's, Chayefsky earned admiring reviews and wide audiences. Four of his plays were produced on Broadway: Middle of the Night, The Tenth Man, Gideon and The Passion of Joseph D. He also wrote eight screenplays, three of which -- Marty, The Hospital, and Network -- won Academy Awards. When he died in 1981, Chayefsky was respected internationally by actors, directors and producers.
