George Cukor

Cukor in 1946 George Dewey Cukor ( ; July 7, 1899 – January 24, 1983) was an American film director and producer. He mainly concentrated on comedies and literary adaptations. His career flourished at RKO when David O. Selznick, the studio's Head of Production, assigned Cukor to direct several of RKO's major films, including ''What Price Hollywood?'' (1932), ''A Bill of Divorcement'' (1932), ''Our Betters'' (1933), and ''Little Women'' (1933). When Selznick moved to Metro-Goldwyn-Mayer in 1933, Cukor followed and directed ''Dinner at Eight'' (1933) and ''David Copperfield'' (1935) for Selznick, and ''Romeo and Juliet'' (1936) and ''Camille'' (1936) for Irving Thalberg.

He was replaced as one of the directors of ''Gone with the Wind'' (1939), but he went on to direct ''The Philadelphia Story'' (1940), ''Gaslight'' (1944), ''Adam's Rib'' (1949), ''Born Yesterday'' (1950), ''A Star Is Born'' (1954), ''Bhowani Junction'' (1956), and won the Academy Award for Best Director for ''My Fair Lady'' (1964), which was his fifth time nominated. He continued to work into the early 1980s. Provided by Wikipedia
