A successful novelist, James Edward Grant began writing for films in the mid '30s, and scripted several John Wayne actioners, including Allan Dwan's Sands of Iwo Jima, John Farrow's Hondo, John Ford's Donovan's Reef, and many others, as well as Wayne's own The Alamo. Grant also directed his scripts for Wayne's Angel and the Badman and the circus murder mystery Ring of Fear, starring Clyde Beatty and Mickey Spillane. Other notable films scripted by Grant are Otto Preminger's Danger -- Love At Work, Budd Boetticher's The Bullfighter and the Lady (produced by Wayne), and Michael Curtiz' The Proud Rebel, among others. Grant's last screenplay, for the comedy-western Support Your Local Gunfighter, was produced four years after his death.
