Edward Martino “Mart” Crowley (1935-2020) was an American writer, playwright and producer, whose most famous play, Boys in the Band, opened off-Broadway in 1968 and ran for 1,000 performances. It was adapted into a film in 1970. In 2018, "Boys in the Band" was re-staged on Broadway in a 50th anniversary revival. Crowley also wrote and produced "Remote Asylum" and the autobiographical "A Breeze from the Gulf".

His other credits include the teleplays for "There Must Be a Pony" (1986), "Bluegrass" (1988), "People Like Us" (1990), and a reunion special of "Hart to Hart" in 1996.
