L'autore
David Mercer was born in Yorkshire, the son of an engine-driver, and left school at 14 to become a medical laboratory technician. Before he began playwriting, he joined the Royal Navy and also studied painting and fine arts. Mercer began his career as a dramatist with the trilogy of television plays The Generations (1964). His stage plays include The Governor's Lady, Ride a Cock Horse, Belcher's Luck, Flint (1970), After Haggerty (1970), Duck Song (1974), and Cousin Vladimir (1978). He also wrote the screenplay for the motion picture Providence.
