Erich Segal, the author and screenwriter of Love Story, was a Harvard alumnus.
The 1970 film Love Story, by the late Harvard alumnus and Yale University professor of classics Erich Segal, takes place almost entirely in and around Harvard Square during its first two-thirds, while Harvard undergraduates Oliver Barrett and Jenny Cavalieri meet; finish college; get married; and Oliver goes to Harvard Law School while Jenny teaches school, living in a second-story walk-up in what looks like Watertown.
Although the credit of story is attributed to director himself, this movie is a remake of Hollywood movie Love Story, written by Erich Segal, which tells of the heart-warming relationship between a Harvard lad and a Radcliffe girl.
Roman Laughter: The Comedy of Plautus is a book by Erich Segal, published by the Harvard University Press in 1968.
