Frank Lloyd
British film director (1886–1960)
For other people named Frank Lloyd, see Frank Lloyd (disambiguation).
Frank William George Lloyd (2 February 1886 – 10 August 1960) was a Scottish-American film director, screenwriter, producer and actor.
He was among the founders of the Academy of Motion Picture Arts and Sciences,[2] and was its president from 1934 to 1935.
He is Scotland's first Academy Award winner and is unique in film history, having received three Oscar nominations in 1929 for his work on a silent film (The Divine Lady), a part-talkie (Weary River) and a full talkie (Drag).
He won for The Divine Lady. He was nominated and won again in 1933 for his adaptation of Noël Coward's Cavalcade and received a further Best Director nomination in 1935 for perhaps his most successful film, Mutiny on the Bounty.
In 1957, he was awarded the George Eastman Award, given by George Eastman House for distinguished contribution to the art of film.
