Cosmo Hamilton

Hamilton was married twice: first to Beryl Faber, née Crossley Smith, who died in 1912.

[citation needed] His London musicals include The Catch of the Season (1904), The Belle of Mayfair (1906), The Beauty of Bath (1906).

During the First World War Hamilton was a lieutenant in the Royal Naval Air Service.

He later wrote a number of Broadway shows and many screenplays, and his novels were the basis for several films.

Not even his own press agent could claim for Mr. Hamilton that it was he who conceived the notion of sex, but certainly he has given most of his life to capitalizing the idea.
