Edward C. Lilley(1896-1974)
- Director
- Producer
- Writer
A former stage actor and a respected director of many hit Broadway
musicals - among them "The Ziegfeld Follies" - Edward Lilley came to
Hollywood to make musicals. He directed almost a dozen of them for
Universal; unfortunately, none of them approached the quality of his
Broadway productions, being mostly low-budget, somewhat slapdash
affairs featuring the likes of The Ritz Brothers, Bob Crosby and others on
Universal's "B" list.
