H. Bruce Humberstone

From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

H. Bruce 'Lucky' Humberstone (b. November 18, 1901 in Buffalo, New York - d. October 11, 1984 in Woodland, Los Angeles, California) was a movie actor (as a child), a script clerk, and later an assistant director, working with directors such as King Vidor, Edmound Golding and Allan Dwan.

One of twenty-eight founders of the Directors Guild of America, Humberstone worked on several silent movie films for 20th Century Fox. Humberstone did not specialize; he worked on comedies, dramas and melodramas without a problem. Humberstone is best known today for his work on some of the Charlie Chan films. In the 1950s, Humberstone worked mostly on TV. He retired in 1962, and has a star on the Hollywood Walk of Fame.
