ピーター・ストローハン
Peter Straughan (born 1968) is a British playwright, screenwriter, and author, based in the northeast of England. He was writer-in-residence at Newcastle's Live Theatre Company. Whilst there, Live staged his plays, Bones and Noir. He has been commended for having a talent for writing dark, twisted, and witty stories. His first ambition was to be a professional musician, and he achieved this while playing bass guitar with the Newcastle-based band "The Honest Johns." He spent four years touring and recording with the band through the late 1980s and into the early 1990s before leaving to take up full-time education at Newcastle University. While Peter was a student, he was also a member of the band Cactusman. Peter wrote the song "Killer," which appeared on the CD album North of London, a collection of music by North East bands released through Newcastle Arts. Straughan co-wrote the 2006 feature film Mrs. Ratcliffe's Revolution and adapted Toby Young's memoir How to Lose Friends & Alienate People. He is the writer of the 2009 film, The Men Who Stare at Goats, and co-writer of the 2011 film Tinker Tailor Soldier Spy, for which he was nominated for the Academy Award for Adapted Screenplay, a screenplay he wrote in collaboration with his late wife Bridget O'Connor. O'Connor died of cancer, aged 49, in 2010, before the film was released. They were awarded a BAFTA for Best Adapted Screenplay. He adapted Wolf Hall for television. Series 2 of Wolf Hall was confirmed to be in production on 27 May 2019. Description above from the Wikipedia article Peter Straughan, licensed under CC-BY-SA, full list of contributors on Wikipedia.
