Eugene Harold "Gene" Corman (September 24, 1927 – September 28, 2020) was an American film producer and agent. He was the younger brother of Roger Corman with whom he collaborated on several occasions.
Biography
Corman attended Beverly Hills High School and Standford University. He graduated in 1948 and went to work in the mailroom at MCA, enterting the film industry before his brother. Corman became an agent and vice president of MCA, representing such clients as Joan Crawford, Fred MacMurray, Richard Conte, Harry Belafonte, and Ray Milland. Corman also represented his brother negotiating the distribution deal for the latter's first film Monster from the Ocean Floor.
= Producer
=Corman moved into producing in the late 1950s, making a number of movies with Bernard L. Kowalski and Robert L. Lippert as well as his brother, Roger. The Corman brothers set up Filmgroup Productions in 1959.
Through the 1960s Gene Corman produced several films that his brother directed, including Tower of London, The Premature Burial, The Secret Invasion, Target Harry and Von Richthofen and Brown.
In the early 1970s, Gene Corman had his own producing unit at MGM. He later became vice-president of 20th Century Fox Television.
According to Filmink "One of the side effects of Roger Corman’s fame was the relegation of his producer brother Gene, to the shadows of film history. This was both unfair and unfortunate since Gene not only played a crucial, often overlooked part in his brother’s story, he had a fine career of his own."
