Actor, TV Executive. Born Gaston-Jacques Glass in Paris, he came to the United States after World War I and had his first lead movie role in “Humoresque” (1920). Tall and strapping, he became a popular matinee idol in Northwest adventure sagas and films with French settings, among them “Cameron of the Royal Mounted” (1921), “Monte Cristo” (1922), “Parisian Nights” (1925), and “The Call of the Klondike” (1926). When talkies put an end to his leading man status he ventured into the production end of the business. In 1944 Glass joined Fox and showed considerable talent as an assistant director, sharing Directors Guild of America (DGA) Awards with Joseph L. Mankiewicz for “A Letter to Three Wives” (1949) and “All About Eve” (1950); his other credits in this capacity include “Doll Face” (1945), “State Fair” (1945), “Sitting Pretty” (1948), and “Three Coins in the Fountain” (1954). From 1960 until his death he was production manager of 20th Century-Fox Television, supervising such series as “Voyage to the Bottom of the Sea”, “Lost in Space”, and “Batman”. Glass was engaged to actress Renee Adoree in the mid-1920s and later married chorus girl Cioba “Bo Peep” Carlin.
