Arthur Penn
Arthur Hiller Penn (September 27, 1922 – September 28, 2010)〔
〕 was an American director and producer of film, television and theater. Penn directed critically acclaimed films throughout the 1960s such as the drama ''The Chase'' (1966), the biographical crime film ''Bonnie and Clyde'' (1967) and the comedy ''Alice's Restaurant'' (1969). He also got attention for his revisionist Western ''Little Big Man'' (1970).
By the mid-1970s his films were received with much less enthusiasm. In the 1990s he returned to stage and television direction and production, including an executive producer role for the crime series ''Law & Order''.
==Early years==
Penn was born to a Russian Jewish family〔(Jewish Journal: "‘Bonnie and Clyde’ director Arthur Penn dies at 88" by Danielle Berrin ) September 29, 2010〕 in Philadelphia, Pennsylvania, the son of Sonia (Greenberg), a nurse, and Harry Penn, a watchmaker. He was the younger brother of Irving Penn, the successful fashion photographer. During the 1920s, he moved in with his mother after she divorced Penn's father. Some time after, he came back to his sickly father, leading him to run his father's watch repair shop. At 19 he was drafted into the army. Stationed in Britain, he became interested in theater. He started to direct and take part in shows being put on for the soldiers around England at the time. As Penn grew up, he became increasingly interested in film, especially after seeing the Orson Welles film ''Citizen Kane''. He later attended Black Mountain College in North Carolina, and was a featured commentator in the documentary ''Fully Awake'' about the college.〔(【引用サイトリンク】title=Arthur Penn and Black Mountain College )〕
