Anatole de Grunwald was seven years old when his father, a diplomat in
the service of the Russian Czar, was forced to flee with his family to
England during the Bolshevik Revolution. He grew up in England, began a
career as a journalist there and entered the British film industry in
1939 as a screenwriter, then a producer. He was eventually appointed
managing director of Two Cities Films, and later formed his own
production company with his brother,
Dimitri De Grunwald. Most of his
films were British productions, although in the 1960s he did venture to
the US to produce a few movies, then returned to England for the
remainder of his career.
