An English director, producer, and writer, born on August 13, 1899, in Leytonstone, London, England, UK. Hitchcock was raised as a Roman Catholic and sent to study at Salesian College in Battersea then to the Jesuit grammar school St Ignatius College in Stamford Hill. Hitchcock left St Ignatius College to study at the London County Council School of Engineering and Navigation in Poplar. At the age of 15, his father died, and he started working as a technical clerk at the Henley Telegraph and Cable Company. He began his career in 1919 working for the Famous Players-Lasky Corporation in London, and later on, he went on to work for Islington Studios as a title card designer. Thereafter, he became an assistant director in 1922. In 1925, he made his directorial debut, The Pleasure Garden, followed by The Lodger: A Story of the London Fog (1927). The 1930s saw him directing several films, such as The Man Who Knew Too Much (1934) and The 39 Steps (1935). In 1940, he moved to Hollywood to present his first film there, Rebecca, for which he received his first Oscar nomination for Best Director, and in 1946, he presented the film Notorious. Hitchcock moved to Paramount Pictures and filmed Rear Window (1954), starring James Stewart and Grace Kelly, while the film Psycho (1960) is considered one of Hitchcock's most famous films, and it was produced with a budget of only $800,000. Although Hitchcock was nominated for several Academy Awards for Best Director, he did not win one. Hitchcock was knighted in 1980 by Queen Elizabeth II at the 1980 New Year's Honours. He died of kidney failure on April 29, 1980. |
