Biography

Born and raised in Burnside, Kentucky, Edith Pearl Fitzgerald was one of 12 children born to John Fitzgerald and Dora Roberts.

During the course of her career, she co-wrote several Broadway plays with Robert Riskin, her then-boyfriend, including Her Delicate Condition.[1][2] The two parted ways after they moved to the West Coast, and they never married despite press reports to the contrary.[3]

She was married to Elmer Griffin, a star tennis player, and she became a tennis champion in her own right.[4] She died in 1968 in Charlotte, North Carolina, after a brief illness.[5]
