Harry M. Fowler — Little Close-Ups of the A. S. C. (1922) 🇺🇸
Harry M. Fowler, A. S. C, started his cinematographic career in the laboratory which is a good place to start.
Mr. Fowler jumped into the game at St. Louis, Missouri, with the St. Louis Motion Picture Company in 1910 and continued there until 1913, but he longed for a more active life, and tuning up his camera he struck out for Camerafornia and made a connection with the American Film Company, at their Santa Barbara studio.
Here his first assignment was with Kolb & Dill, who were then being featured in five reel comedy dramas. Seven features with Arthur Mande followed and then came “Star of the Western Sea” starring Audrey Munson, one of the biggest features of those days. Mr. Fowler left the American to make comedies for Christie [Al Christie] and Strand and he turned off twenty-six in a row which was a record at that time. While in the comedy mood he filmed pictures for Mr. and Mrs. Carter De Haven and Smiling Bill Parsons [William “Smiling Bill” Parsons] and then reversed the English and went in for drama.
He is the man who photographed “Tarzan of the Apes” and he did a fine job of it, but the comedies called again and he went to Vitagraph for pictures with Montgomery and Rock and Joe Rock [and Earl Montgomery]. Then Harry Carey needed an expert to film his Western features and Mr. Fowler won a home with him after the first day’s work photographing a long series of pictures with Carey as the star and helping very materially to establish him as a popular hero of the Westerns.
