Abram Hill, also known as Ab Hill, (January 20, 1910 – October 13, 1986) was an American playwright, author of On Strivers Row, Walk Hard, Talk Loud and several other plays; and a principal figure in the development of black theatre from Atlanta, Georgia.
Although best known for his literary work On Strivers Row, Hill's most fundamental accomplishment was his part in founding American Negro Theater (ANT) alongside Frederick O'Neal, and members of the McClendon Players.[1]
