Karl Tunberg

From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

Karl Tunberg (11 March 1909-3 April 1992) was an American screenwriter and occasional film producer.

Born in Spokane, Washington, Tunberg began writing for films, usually in association with other writers, in the late 1930s. His first feature film was You Can't Have Everything (1937), after which he provided scripts for several comedies and musicals featuring such stars as Betty Grable, Sonja Henie, Deanna Durbin, Dorothy Lamour and Shirley Temple. Among his credits are My Gal Sal (1942), Standing Room Only (1944), Kitty (1945) both with Paulette Goddard, Because You're Mine (1952), Valley of the Kings (1954), Beau Brummell (1954), The Seventh Sin (1957), Count Your Blessings (1959) and Libel (1959).

He is best-known for Ben Hur for which he received the only screenwriting credit, despite the fact that the director William Wyler had enlisted other writers such as Maxwell Anderson, Christopher Fry and Gore Vidal for the screenplay.

Tunberg died in London.
