Biography

John Henry Graham Cutts (1884–1956) was a writer, director and producer who worked in fledgling British film industry, initially for Graham-Wilcox Productions, then for Balcon, Freedman & Saville (1923) and Gainsborough (1924-29), before directing less frequently for various British film companies during the 1930s. During the mid-to-late 1920s, he was regularly referred to as "England's greatest director" by the British press. His daughter was actress Patricia Cutts (1926–1974). Cutts worked with many leading figures in the UK film and stage world, including Basil Dean, Alfred Hitchcock, Gracie Fields, Ivor Novello, and Noël Coward.
