George White (film editor)
- George White (film editor)
George White (20 August 1911 - 15 February 1998) first became a Hollywood editor in 1942, spending most of his career at Metro-Goldwyn-Mayer.
Accomplishments
Among his more well known efforts were the war film "Bataan" (1943), Vincente Minnelli’s "The Clock" (1945), Tay Garnett’s steamy version of "The Postman Always Rings Twice" (1946), the epic special effects extravaganza "Green Dolphin Street" (1947), for which he was nominated for an Academy Award for Film Editing, and "Challenge to Lassie" in 1949.
The 1950s saw him working on such films as "The Naked Spur" (1953), generally considered to be one of Anthony Mann’s finest Westerns, and the Biblical epic "The Silver Chalice" (1954), which helped launch the career of Paul Newman.
White’s stock, however, waned considerably in the 1960s and he spent most of the decade working on potboilers. He retired in 1966.
