Boris Ingster(1903-1978)

Latvian-born writer-director who had worked with Sergei Eisenstein in Russia. Ingster arrived in the U.S. during the 1930's, where he became best known as the director of O Homem dos Olhos Esbugalhados (1940), an effective minor film noir, produced by RKO on a modest budget. Ingster helmed another film noir a decade later, Dinheiro Sangrento (1950), before moving on to television as a writer/producer.
