Name a busy type of playwright (5)

Ross

I believe the answer is:

albee

'playwright' is the definition.
(I've seen this in another clue)

'name a busy type' is the wordplay.
'name' becomes 'Al'.
'a busy type' becomes 'bee' (busy as a bee).
'al'+'bee'='ALBEE'

'of' is the link.

(Other definitions for albee that I've seen before include "American dramatist" , "Edward --, US playwright" , "even if now forgotten?" .)

I've seen this clue in the Evening Standard.
