Description
Ted DeGrazia collaborated with ace cinematographer Lee Garmes (1898-1978) on short films, which have apparently never been shown publicly.
Garmes was one of the pioneers in movie making with a filmography spanning 1918-1973.
Highlights include "Gone With the Wind" and "Duel in the Sun," both produced by David O. Selznick.
In 1956 he lensed "Bottom of the Bottle" at Old Tucson. Perhaps that was when he first met Ted.
Garmes easily adjusted to talking pictures. One of his more unusual early talkies is the 1932 Clara Bow film "Call Her Savage." A restored print was shown at the Museum of Modern Art in New York City in late 2012.
THE MOMA was the first major museum in the US to acknowledge motion pictures as an art form.
Ted was also involved as an actor or the subject of 4 short film projects with cinematographer, director, producer and sound mixer Ron Walker: "DeGrazia - The Man - The Time - The Legend," 1973, "The Flute Player," 1976, "Ted DeGrazia: 1977 and "End of the Rainbow," 1978.
