Samuel Grosvenor Woodwas an American film director and producer who is best known for having directed such Hollywood hits as A Night at the Opera, A Day at the Races, Goodbye, Mr. Chips, The Pride of the Yankees, and For Whom the Bell Tolls and for his uncredited work directing parts of Gone with the Wind. He was also involved in a few acting and writing projects.
As a youth, Wood developed an enthusiasm for physical fitness that persisted into his senior years and influenced his interest in making sports-themed films.
Wood advanced from making largely competent yet routine pictures in the 1920s and 1930s to directing several highly regarded works during the 1940s at the peak of his abilities, among them Kings Rowand Ivy (1947).
Wood’s quick, efficient and professional execution of his film assignments endeared him to studio executives, and though not a “brilliant” director, Wood’s legacy represents “a long and respectable film career.”

While they’re building a solid foundation that will support whatever is coming down the road, Todd and I are itching to see further, to push the envelope.
