Gerald Gutierrez (February 3, 1950 in Brooklyn, New York – December 29, 2003 in Brooklyn, New York) was an American Tony Award-winning stage director.

Career

He was a graduate of the Juilliard School and initially worked as a performer. He then started directing Off-Broadway, often at Playwrights Horizons. He directed at Lincoln Center (New York City) including The Heiress in 1995, A Delicate Balance in 1996, The Most Happy Fella and Dinner at Eight in 2002. His work with The Heiress and A Delicate Balance was said to be (by Playbill) as "near perfect representations of those plays".[1][2][3]

Of The Heiress, the Variety reviewer wrote: "Although Gerald Gutierrez’s direction can’t be undervalued, The Heiress is not by any stretch “director’s theater.”... Under Gutierrez’s sure hand, the exceptional cast never falters." [4]

He directed the Wendy Wasserstein play Isn't It Romantic in 1983; Gutierrez and Wasserstein were good friends.[3]

He was said (by The New York Times) to have "an obsession with detail that made each production tick like a perfectly calibrated clock", and to do "ferocious" research.[5] André Bishop, a close friend of Gutierrez, said "Of all the directors I know, he was one who combined a scrupulous sense of reality with enormous flair and style."[6]

Death

The exact date of his death is not known; he was found in his apartment. He died in his sleep of respiratory failure.[2]

Awards and nominations

Gutierrez was nominated for the 1994 Tony Award, Director of a Play for Abe Lincoln in Illinois.[7]

He won the 1995 Tony Award, Director of a Play for The Heiress and the 1996 Tony Award, Director of a Play for A Delicate Balance.[8]
