Delbert Mann

Highest Rated: 100% Kidnapped (1971)

Lowest Rated: 33% Dear Heart (1965)

Birthday: Jan 30, 1920

Birthplace: Lawrence, Kansas, USA

Working in TV from 1947, Mann directed over 100 live plays, the best known of which was Paddy Chayefsky's "Marty" (1953). The following year he directed a big-screen version, starring Ernest Borgnine as the lonely Bronx butcher in search of love. The success of the film--it took the Palme d'Or at Cannes--paved the way for a number of low-budget films on "small" subjects that flourished in the mid-1950s.
