Samuel J. Briskin (February 8, 1896 – November 14, 1968) was one of the foremost producers of Hollywood's Golden Age, who was the head of production during his career of 3 of the "Big 8" major film studios of its Golden Age: Columbia (twice), Paramount, and RKO. In the late 1950s he would also serve briefly on the board of directors of another major, MGM. During World War II Briskin served in the Army's Signal Corps as a film producer, attaining the rank of Lieutenant Colonel. After the war he co-founded Liberty Films with Frank Capra, who were later joined by William Wyler and George Stevens. The studio only produced two films, but both are now considered classics: ''It's a Wonderful Life'' and ''State of the Union''. All three of his brothers were also film producers, as well as one of his sons, and his sister was married to the eventual Chairman of Columbia, where Briskin spent the last decade of his life as a vice-president and head of production until his death in 1968 from a heart attack. ==Early life== Briskin was born on February 8, 1896 in either Riga, Russia or New York City. His Parents were Benjamin and Rose Briskin.〔 〕 Two of his brothers, Irving and Murray also became film producers, while his sister, Ida, married a film studio executive. Briskin also had one other brother, Barnett (Barney), who was also in the film industry as a theater manager and in sales capacities. While some sources have his birthplace is Riga, Russia, others indicate that he was born in New York, after his parents immigrated there. Briskin was a product of the public school system. He obtained his college degree in accounting from the College of the City of New York.〔
