Virgil W. Vogel began his career at Universal in 1940 as an assistant editor. He worked as an editor for many years, although by the mid-'50s he had begun to tire of the job and pressed Universal executive Edward Muhl for a shot at directing. Vogel was handed Le peuple de l'enfer (1956) with John Agar, and his capable handling of that film led to other assignments at the studio. Vogel later directed many made-for-television movies as well as episodes of TV's Bonanza (1959), La grande caravane (1957), M Squad (1957), L'homme qui valait 3 milliards (1974), Mission impossible (1966), Code Quantum (1989), Spenser (1985) and many others.

    [about Le peuple de l'enfer (1956), his directorial debut] I thought the script was pretty good. You've got to remember that I was a young man then, and I didn't know too much what I was doing!
