Géza von Cziffra was a prolific novelist, screenwriter and director, born in Arad, Hungary, of ethnic German ancestry. He began his career as a journalist in Vienna in 1918 and later worked in Berlin as a political commentator and film writer for the publications Berliner Tageblatt and Welt am Abend. In 1922, he became apprenticed in the film business as an assistant director for Alexander Korda at Sascha Films. By 1932, the multi-faceted Cziffra divided his time running a cabaret on Berlin's Kurfürstendamm and writing film scripts, plays and novels. For much of this output he used a plethora of pseudonyms, including John Ferguson, Karel Kubela, Horace Parker, Enrique Anden, Thomas Harrer, Albert Anthony and Peter Trenck.
Cziffra directed his first four feature films (all Hungarian-language productions) in Budapest between 1934 and 1935. His next directing assignments, the ice revue Der weiße Traum (1943) (one of the most profitable German films of the period) and the romantic comedy Hundstage (1944), set the tone for his subsequent output, which would consist almost entirely of light commercial entertainments: musical comedies, marital farces, crime potboilers and Heimatfilms. In the pleasure-starved post-war era, such unambitious films were often pure box-office gold.
After the war, Cziffra established his own production company, Cziffra-Film GmbH, under American license in Vienna. It ceased operation in 1949. Undeterred, Cziffra soon co-founded another company in Hamburg, Arion-Film GmbH, which also existed for a mere four years (1952-56).
Cziffra's most popular post-war films as writer/director include Gabriela (1950), Tanzende Sterne (1952), Banditen der Autobahn (1955), Der müde Theodor (1957) and no less than twelve musical comedies starring the Austrian entertainer Peter Alexander. Cziffra retired from films in 1974, but continued to publish novels, memoirs and a collection of anecdotes well into the late 1980's.- Director

An avid fan of long distance running, Fred joined the New York Road Runners Club in 1969 -- he went on to become the president of this particular club a few years later -- and co-founded the New York City Marathon in 1970, which was initially done as a four lap run through Central Park.

Outside of the New York City Marathon, Fred also organized such events as the Empire State Building Run-Up, the Fifth Avenue Mile, and the L'eggs Mini-Marathon (the latter was the first strictly women's race).

On November 1, 1992 at age sixty Fred ran in the New York City Marathon: Accompanied by longtime friend and champion runner Grete Waitz, who won the New York York City Marathon nine times altogether, Lebow finished the marathon in five hours, thirty-two minutes, and thirty-five seconds. Fred died at age sixty-two on October 9, 1994. During his lifetime Lebow had completed sixty-nine marathons in thirty countries.

Hungarian-born Endre Bohem received his education at the University of Budapest and at the Sorbonne in Paris, France. He emigrated to the US in 1921, attended New York's Columbia University, then made his way to Hollywood, where he worked as a screenwriter on several silent films. Although he was employed as an assistant to Columbia Pictures head Harry Cohn, Bohem wrote pictures for a variety of studios, including MGM and Republic, before accepting a job in the MGM short-subjects department as a producer and writer. Leaving MGM to produce feature films at Paramount, Bohem was responsible for such quirky fare as Alias Nick Beal (1949). He was one of the earliest Hollywood writers to detour to television, where he worked as a writer and producer on several shows beginning in 1952, but kept his hand in features, writing such films as Bengazi (1955). In 1959 he joined the company of the Clint Eastwood western series Rawhide (1959) as a story consultant and eventually moved up to executive producer. He continued to work in both films and television until his retirement.- Edward N. Luttwak was born in 1942 in Arad, Romania.
