He later went on to appearances in Western films. The first film he directed was ''Western Trails'' (1938). In the 1960s, he directed episodes of the television series ''Maverick'', ''Batman'', ''The Green Hornet'', and ''The Man from U.N.C.L.E.''. He directed John Wayne and Oliver Hardy wearing coonskin caps in ''The Fighting Kentuckian'' (1949), in which his daughter, Shy Waggner, appeared in a cameo. His career in film declined in the 1950s, due to the popularity of television, and he eventually moved to television late in the decade. He directed ''Red Nightmare'', a Cold War propaganda film produced by the Department of Defense and narrated by Jack Webb. Waggner wrote the film ''Queen of the Yukon'' based on a story by Jack London. ==Personal life== Waggner's wife was Danny Shannon. The couple had only one child, Shy, born in 1924, and two grandchildren, Sherry and Robert. 抄文引用元・出典: フリー百科事典『 ウィキペディア（Wikipedia）』 ■ウィキペディアで「George Waggner」の詳細全文を読む スポンサード リンク
