Biography
Columbus, Indiana, 20 July 1874: the day the curtain rose on Joseph Levering. Behind the camera he orchestrated shadows and light for *Defenders of the Law* (1931), corralled high-flying adventure in *Terry and the Pirates* (1940), and dissected matrimony in *Husbands and Wives* (1920). Between these projects he stepped before the lens himself, trading direction for performance whenever the story demanded. The final fade-out came 27 August 1943 in Kansas City, Missouri, closing a life spent guiding audiences through flickering worlds of crime, comedy, and derring-do.
