Alfred Gilks
From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
Alfred Gilks (1891 - 1970) was a cinematographer from 1920 through to 1956. He worked on a slew of silent films in the 1920s (his most prodigious period). Among the more famous sound films he worked on were "Ruggles of Red Gap" in 1935, several of the Dr. Kildare movies, and of course his Oscar-winning work on "An American in Paris" in 1951. His last credit was for second unit photography on John Ford's seminal "The Searchers" in 1956.
