Howard Hughes: General Motors
built 235 days ago
Howard Hughes started his film career in 1926 at the age of 20, two years after inheriting his deceased parents' tool fortune. Hughes formed Caddo Productions, and hired A-class talent like director Lewis Milestone, screenwriter Ben Hecht, and Pickford director Marshall Neilan. By 1928, he signed a distribution deal with United Artists, and moved from the Metropolitan (General Service) Studios to the United Artists lot, where he headquartered his film operation through the years, even after his RKO purchase.

Hughes was proud of the fact that his mind was still working. Also, as he lay in his hospital bed, he noted that he did not like the design of his bed. He called in plant engineers to design a "tailor-made" bed, equipped with hot and cold running water, built in six sections, and operated by 30 electric motors, with push-button adjustments.[12]
