Born into affluence in high-society Boston, Herbert Pelham Curtis followed his father into the law and later entered military service. Along the way, he turned to literary pursuits as a hobby, first translating a number of works, and later penning his own original creations. The short play None So Deaf As Those Who Won't Hear is an uproarious parlor comedy that delves into the crossed wires and communication misfires that can often occur in families.
