| 释义 |
She is the daughter of Paddy Devlin, a Northern Ireland Labour Party (NILP) Member of the Parliament of Northern Ireland and later a founding member of the Social Democratic and Labour Party (SDLP). She was raised in Belfast. In January 1969, while a student at the New University of Ulster, Devlin joined a civil rights march from Belfast to Derry, organised by the People's Democracy. At Burntollet Bridge, a few miles from Derry, the march was attacked by loyalists. Devlin was struck on the head, knocked unconscious, fell into the river and was brought to hospital suffering from concussion. The march was echoed in her 1994 play After Easter.[3] Devlin subsequently left Northern Ireland for England. She was visiting lecturer in playwriting at the University of Birmingham in 1987, and a writer in residence at Lund University, Sweden, in 1990.[4] In 1982 she won the Hennessy Literary Award for her short story, Passages, which was adapted for television as A Woman Calling. She has written for the stage - Ourselves Alone (first performed in 1985) and After Easter (first performed in 1994 and for which she won the Lloyds Playwright of the Year).[2] Devlin has also written the screenplays for Titanic Town, which is adapted from a novel by Mary Costello, and Emily Brontë's Wuthering Heights and the BBC serial The Rainbow (1988). Her short fiction was collected as The Way-Paver (1986). In 1984 she received the Samuel Beckett Award, and, in 1986, she won the Susan Smith Blackburn Prize.[5][6] She also wrote the screenplay for The Rainbow, produced by the BBC in 1988.[7] A major radio play written by Devlin, entitled The Forgotten, was first broadcast on BBC Radio 4 in January 2009.[8] References1. ^{{cite news | last = | first = | title = Weekend birthdays | newspaper = The Guardian | location = | pages = 55 | language = | publisher = Guardian News & Media | date = 13 Sep 2014 | url = | accessdate = 13 Sep 2014}} {{Authority control}}{{DEFAULTSORT:Devlin, Anne}}2. ^1 {{cite web|title=Anne Devlin |work=Alan Brodie Representation |url=http://www.alanbrodie.com/html/c.v/Anne%20Devlin%20cv.html |archive-url=https://web.archive.org/web/20031211093238/http://www.alanbrodie.com/html/c.v/Anne%20Devlin%20cv.html |dead-url=yes |archive-date=11 December 2003 |accessdate=2007-07-29 |df= }} 3. ^{{cite web |url=http://hal.archives-ouvertes.fr/docs/00/44/12/05/PDF/autobiographies-envoye.pdf |title=Anne Devlin's Ourselves Alone (1987) and After Easter: autobiographical plays? |author=Virginie Privas |accessdate=2010-08-19 |work= |publisher=Hyper Articles en Ligne |year=2006 }} 4. ^{{cite web | title=Author Biography - Anne Devlin | work=E-Notes | url=http://www.enotes.com/naming-names/author-biography | accessdate=2007-07-29}} 5. ^{{cite web| title= Irish playography/biography - Anne Devlin| work= Irish Theatre Institute| url= http://www.irishplayography.com/search/person.asp?PersonID=6441| accessdate= 2007-07-29| archiveurl= https://web.archive.org/web/20070908185429/http://www.irishplayography.com/search/person.asp?PersonID=6441| archivedate= 8 September 2007| deadurl= yes| df= dmy-all}} 6. ^{{cite web|title=Author - Anne Devlin |work=Irish Writers Online |url=http://www.irishwriters-online.com/annedevlin.html |accessdate=2007-07-29 |deadurl=yes |archiveurl=https://web.archive.org/web/20070927003250/http://www.irishwriters-online.com/annedevlin.html |archivedate=27 September 2007 |df=dmy }} 7. ^{{cite journal |last=Heron |first=Liz |date=3–9 December 1988 |title=Women in love with Lawrence |journal=Radio Times |volume=259 |issue=3392 |pages=4–10 |publisher=BBC Magazines |location=London }} 8. ^{{cite web | title=Broadcast Details for The Forgotten, by Anne Devlin | work= BBC Radio 4 (This radio play is available via iTunes.)| url=http://www.bbc.co.uk/programmes/b00g45y4}} 18 : Alumni of Ulster University|1951 births|20th-century writers from Northern Ireland|21st-century writers from Northern Ireland|Living people|Writers from Belfast|Screenwriters from Northern Ireland|Short story writers from Northern Ireland|Women writers from Northern Ireland|British women screenwriters|20th-century Irish dramatists and playwrights|Women dramatists and playwrights from Northern Ireland|British women short story writers|Television writers from Northern Ireland|20th-century British dramatists and playwrights|20th-century women writers|21st-century women writers|Women television writers |
