#REDIRECT [[Hyman Kirstein]]
(b. London, **/**/1913 - d. **/**/1981).  Producer, director, editor, cameraman.  A long-time employee of [[African Film Productions]], Hyman Kirstein started in the mid-1930s as a cameraman and then turned to editing, usually working with [[Joseph Albrecht]], notably on many war-time propaganda shorts.  In the early 1950s he directed three features - ''[[Zonk!]]'' (1950), ''[[Hier's Ons Weer!]]'' (1950) and ''[[Alles Sal Regkom!]]'' (1951) - but became best known as producer or executive producer, frequently working with [[David Millin]].  He also worked on a number of films for overseas directors as the South African production associate.  By 1963 he was the General Manager of [[Killarney Film Studios]] and in 1978 he received an honorary medal for film from the [[Suid-Afrikaanse Akademie vir Wetenskap en Kuns]].
