Hello. I just wanted to let someone know that my uncle was Art Director in one or two of the Charlie Chan movies. His name was Lewis H. Creber.
Thank you.
Once in a great while, a family member of an individual who worked on or in Charlie Chan films will drop by to make a post on our humble Message Board. Thank you for sharing briefly about your unclewho participated in no less than NINE Chan films at Twentieth Century-Fox! A little fast research shows that Lewis Creber also made the transition, rather successfully to television later in his career, working on numerous episodes of the "Perry Mason" TV series. I am certain that I saw the results of your uncle's work many times as I watched that show as a young boy with my father!
It has been many years since his passing in 1965, but, but do you have any recollections of anything that your uncle may have mentioned regarding his work with Warner Oland and Sidney Toler in the Charlie Chan pictures?
Thank you so much for sharing something about your uncle with us.
