Stuart Rosenberg: New York University
built 434 days ago
Born in Brooklyn, NY, on August 11, 1927 (some sources alternately list his birthrate as 1925), Rosenberg attended New York University as a young man, where he studied Irish literature. Attempting (with some struggle) to support himself as a graduate student and teacher, Rosenberg opted, as an alternative, to train as an editor on television programs. At that time (early to mid-'50s), the Big Apple thrived as the central mecca and hotbed of broadcast activity -- one of the nation's foremost creative labs for exciting new talent. In other words, Rosenberg fell into the perfect niche.

Born in Brooklyn, New York City, New York, Rosenberg studied Irish literature at New York University in Manhattan, and began working as an apprentice film editor while in graduate school. After advancing to film editor, he then transitioned into directing in 1957 with the syndicated television series Decoy, starring Beverly Garland as an undercover police woman. It was the first police series on American television built around a female protagonist.

Rosenberg learned his craft in the early days of television, and it could be argued that that was where he did his best work. It was while trying to survive as a graduate student (born in Brooklyn, he had studied Irish literature at New York University) and part-time teacher that he got a job as an apprentice television film editor at the start of the 1950s.
