crafted the screenplays for some of director Alfred Hitchcock's best-loved films, notably Rear Window (1954), for which Hayes garnered an Edgar Award from the Mystery Writers of America as well as an Academy Award nomination, To Catch a Thief (1955), The Trouble with Harry (1955), and The Man Who Knew Too Much (1956). Hayes initially wrote for radio before turning to screenwriting; some of his early film credits include Thunder Bay and Torch Song, both in 1953. After a falling out with Hitchcock led to the end of their association, Hayes adapted a number of literary works, including Peyton Place (1957), for which he won a second Academy Award nomination, The Matchmaker (1958), Butterfield 8 (1960), The Children's Hour (1961), and The Carpetbaggers (1964). Other credits include Nevada Smith (1975) and Iron Will (1994).
