From IMDB about Mike Nichols: The other members of the "Compass Players" including Elaine May, Paul Sills, Byrne Piven, 'Joyce Piven' and Edward Asner helped start the famed "Second City Improv" company. He later worked in legitimate theater as an actor before entering into a very successful comedy duo with Elaine May. The two were known as "the world's fastest humans".
Seems he was the director of "the Graduate" and she has been a successful screenwriter.
