Timeline

1890

Biography in: John Wakeman, editor. "World Film Directors, Volume One, 1890-1945." Pages 971-976. New York: The H.W. Wilson Company, 1987.

1908

Robert Rossen was born on March 16, 1908 in New York City, New York, USA as Robert Rosen.

1936

He became a contract screenwriter for Mervyn LeRoy at Warner Brothers (1936-45) when his latest play on Broadway closed after just four performances. His screenplays often focused on individuals either fighting or being destroyed by the system. Prompted by actor Dick Powell, he directed his first film in 1946. Though it was poorly received, he then had back-to-back hits with Body and Soul (1947) and All the King's Men (1949), after which he was able to set up his own production company, with financing and releasing through Columbia (contract 1949-51). Rossen had a poor productive spell in the 1950's and did not return to form until The Hustler (1961). His last film, Lilith (1964), flopped in the U.S., though it was highly regarded in France. Allegedly, there were on-set problems between Rossen and star Warren Beatty which contributed to Rossen never making another film again.

1937

Was a member of the Communist Party from 1937 to 1945. He was blacklisted by HUAC, 1951-53, after refusing to name names, after being subpoenaed. In 1953, he relented to save his career and implicated 57 people as having had communist affiliations. As a result of his cooperation, he was permitted to work again, though he did not return to Hollywood.

1945

He has written three films that have been selected for the National Film Registry by the Library of Congress as being "culturally, historically or aesthetically" significant: A Walk in the Sun (1945), All the King's Men (1949) and The Hustler (1961). He has also directed two films that are in the registry: All the King's Men and The Hustler.

1949

Directed 8 actors in Oscar-nominated performances: Paul Newman, Jackie Gleason, Piper Laurie, George C. Scott, Broderick Crawford, Mercedes McCambridge, John Ireland, and John Garfield. Crawford and McCambridge won for All the King's Men (1949).

1953

Originally refused to testify at the HUAC hearings (regarding the blacklist), but then admitted to being a member of the Communist Party in May, 1953, and named 57 others as well.

1959

Became obsessed by the failure of They Came to Cordura (1959) and spent many years attempting to release a re-edited version.

1961

He was a writer and director, known for The Hustler (1961), All the King's Men (1949) and Alexander the Great (1956). He was married to Sarah (Sue) Siegel.
