Gary Ross is an American writer, director and actor born November 3rd,
1956 in Los Angeles, California. His father was screenwriter
Arthur A. Ross (1920 - 2008). After
writing for television series
The Hitchhiker (1983) in 1986,
Ross broke through by penning the Tom Hanks hit
Big (1988), his first screenplay to be made
into a feature film. Ross followed up the success of
Big (1988) with a series of notable
screenwriting credits including
Mr. Baseball (1992),
Dave (1993),
Pleasantville (1998) and
Seabiscuit (2003). 1998's
Pleasantville (1998) also marked
Ross's directorial debut, after which he went on to direct
Seabiscuit (2003) and
The Hunger Games (2012), which
he adapted for the screen alongside Hunger Games novelist
Suzanne Collins. Ross has
been nominated for four Academy Awards, including Best Picture and
Adapted Screenplay nods for
Seabiscuit (2003), which received a
total of seven Academy Awards nominations but no wins.
Despite the extraordinary commercial success of The Hunger Games (2012), Ross declined involvement in the franchise's three sequels, choosing instead to focus on other projects including a Civil War film, Free State of Jones (2016), and a long-planned reboot of a film co-written by Gary's father, Arthur A. Ross - Creature from the Black Lagoon.
