Albert S. Rogell

Rogell began his career in Hollywood at age 16 as an assistant to director and producer George Loane Tucker. In 1923, he moved to directing with The Greatest Menace. He worked as a director for Universal Pictures and then for First National Pictures. Later in his career, he worked for Columbia Pictures and made patriotic films for Republic Pictures during World War II. In 1950, his reputation was damaged when he joined a group of directors that campaigned to recall Joseph L. Mankiewicz as president of the Screen Director's Guild after Mankiewicz objected to instituting a loyalty oath. As a result, Rogell moved to television in the 1950s, directing episodes of Broken Arrow and My Friend Flicka. He was the uncle of producer Sid Rogell. ==Filmography==
