Biography

Gene Curtis Harrington (September 17, 1926 – May 6, 2007) was an American film and television director, screenwriter, and producer. He emerged in the experimental film scene of the 1940s and ‘50s, notably as a collaborator of Kenneth Anger, before becoming a director of mainstream horror films and television series. He is considered one of the forerunners to New Queer Cinema. The Harvard Film Archive referred to him as “among the most wholly original directors to work in the Hollywood studio system.”
