Director, Producer, Screenwriter, Short Story Author Born: 1930 Biography:Though little is written of director "Bernard Girard"'s career before the making of "Dead Heat on a Merry-Go-Round" (1966), Girard had been in Hollywood since the early 1950s, first as a screenwriter (among his credits was the 1952 "Joan Crawford" vehicle "This Woman is Dangerous") then as a TV producer/director. His true feature-film bow was 1957's "Ride Out For Revenge", followed by the bleak juvenile delinquent flick "The Party Crashers" (1958): the latter film represented the cinematic swan songs of two of Hollywood's most tragic personalities, "Frances Farmer" and "Bobby Driscoll". One of Girard's better pre-"Dead Heat" projects was "A Public Affair" (1962), a terse, low-budget indictment of big-city political corruption. After "Dead Heat," Bernard Girard's screen credits dwindled, coming to an abrupt halt in 1975. ~ Hal Erickson, All Movie Guide
