Dudley MURPHY

(1897-1968)
Nationality: American

“Boston-born Dudley Murphy was an engineering student, World War I pilot, and movie set decorator before launching his directing career with a series of evocative short films including the first American avant-garde film to be screened in New York City, THE SONG OF THE CYPRESS (1921). These musically driven experiments culminated in the jazz-infused BALLET MECANIQUE, and influenced his later Hollywood and independent features, including THE EMPEROR JONES (1933)." - Susan Delson
