N.B. The member numbers follow The Internet Movie Database's list order announcing the Academy in January 1927.
10. Frank Lloyd (1886-1960) of the Directors Branch, the sixth president of the Academy, 1934-35. The photo is by Woodbury Studio.
Lloyd was nominated for five Academy Awards, winning twice with THE DIVINE WOMAN (1929) and CAVALCADE (1933). He was a stickler for accuracy, and fidelity to his sources, wishing each film to reflect (for example) Charles Dickens rather than Frank Lloyd.
Portrait digne d’un réalisateur hollywoodien.
