Marvin Worth
Marvin Worth (June 6, 1925 – April 22, 1998) was an American film producer, screenwriter and actor perhaps best known for his efforts to bring the biography of Malcolm X to the big screen. His efforts spanned from 1967, when he purchased the rights to ''The Autobiography of Malcolm X'', leading to the production of the 1972 documentary, for which he received an Oscar nomination. Later on, he would help produce ''Malcolm X'', directed by Spike Lee.
==Early life and career==
Worth's career began at a very early age when he began promoting jazz concerts, which led to relationship with many artists. At one time, he managed the musical careers of Charlie Parker and Billie Holiday. Later, Worth's employment as an agent branched into comedy, and he took on contentious comedian Lenny Bruce. In the 1950s, he forged a partnership with Arne Sultan and began writing material for Bruce. The duo went on to pen the scripts for ''Three on a Couch'' and ''Boys' Night Out'' and the story for ''Promise Her Anything''. In 1958, Worth won a Peabody Award for his writing on ''The Steve Allen Show''.
In 1975, Worth brought the story of Lenny Bruce to Broadway in the production ''Lenny'', which won a Tony Award for its star, Cliff Gorman.〔 for the remainder of his career, Worth continued to produce biopics including the 1978 film ''The Rose'' (loosely based on Janis Joplin), the 1996 television movie ''Norma Jean & Marilyn'', the 1998 television movie ''Gia'', and the 2001 television movie ''James Dean''.
