Maxwell Charles Cohen was born 19 May 1926 in Werner, Alberta. Raised in Winnipeg, Cohen received his B.A. from the University of Manitoba and his M.S.W. from the University of Toronto. After spending one and a half years in England, where he met his wife Dian, a fellow Winnipeger and later noted economist, Cohen moved to Montreal to supervise Adult Education at the Young Men Hebrew Association. In 1956 Cohen decided to give up his job as a socialworker and pursue a writing career.
Cohen proved to be a prolific writer, particularly of radio and television plays. After his first televised drama Pastoral on CBC in 1955, Cohen went on to write the well-known National Film Board production Drylanders , a story of life on the Canadian prairies during the Depression. Other radio and television scripts followed including David Chapter Two , David Chapter Three , The True Bleeding Heart of Martin B. , The Origin of the Species and Hostage .
Cohen's success in the smaller Canadian market eventually caught the attention of American writers and producers from all the American television networks as well as producers of a number of feature films. Ever interested in history, Cohen was screenplay writer for such works as Sitting Bull Must Die , Against All Odds , The P.T. Barnum Story, After the Crash , Dark Victory and, most notably of all, Roots , the historical account of the genealogical origins of a black slave family in the ante-bellum south. His work for American television soon garnered praise from observers and press alike. For his work with the television series, Sunshine , he won the prestigious Humanitas Award in the 1970s. And his work on Roots resulted in an Emmy awardnomination.
Although he has spent a great deal of time working in the United Stateshe continues to reside in Canada.
