description About
CURRIER, RICHARD (Richard Carlton Currier), Currier began editing films in 1911 at the Selig studios in Edendale, California. He worked with writer-director Herbert Brenon, edited comedies starring Gale Henry, Milburn Morante, and Billy Franey, and also worked on serials starring Ruth Roland. He was at the Roach studios from about 1921, hired by the head of the editorial department, Thomas J. Crizer. When Crizer left the Roach lot in 1925, Currier was promoted to his spot, and received credit for editing virtually every picture produced by the studio through mid-1933, although in later years he freely admitted that he was more of a supervisor. He worked at Paramount in the ’30s, often on W.C. Fields and Burns and Allen films. Currier returned briefly to the Roach lot in the early ’40s and later worked for Monogram and edited TV shows, among them The Adventures of Wild Bill Hickok and The Whistler. He ran his own editorial service in Hollywood before retiring. Died December 14, 1984, Lake Forest, California, age 92; after a series of strokes. From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia Richard Carlton "Dick" Currier (August 26, 1892 – December 14, 1984) was an American film editor known principally for his work at Hal Roach Studios. Currier was born in Denver, Colorado. From 1920 to 1932 he was the head of the editing department at Hal Roach Studios. His contract ensured that his name appeared as editor on nearly every Hal Roach film released while he was head of the department, though the actual work was often done by other people. Most of the Laurel and Hardy films released by the company during this period were actually edited by Bert Jordan.[citation needed] After his work at Roach, Currier worked at Paramount Pictures and Monogram Pictures. He worked at Hal Roach Studios again for a short while before starting his own editing company. He died in Lake Forest, California. Currier had been elected to membership in American Cinema Editors.
