for Outstanding Director The Drama Desk Award for Outstanding Director was introduced in 1955 to honor directors, with no distinction between work in plays or musicals. From 1968, multiple awards were presented for each season. In 1975 the category was retired and replaced by two awards: Drama Desk Award for Outstanding Director of a Play and Drama Desk Award for Outstanding Director of a Musical.
