Edward Davis "Ed" Wood, Jr. (October 10, 1924 -- December 10, 1978)
was an American screenwriter, director, producer, actor, author,
and editor, who often performed many of these functions
simultaneously. In the 1950s, Wood made a number of low-budget
genre films, now regarded as cult classics.
Wood's popularity waned soon after his biggest name star Bela
Lugosi died. He was able to salvage a saleable feature from
Lugosi's last moments on film, but his career declined thereafter.
Toward the end of his life, Wood made pornographic movies and wrote
pulp crime, horror, and sex novels
