Career
Schiller was active in the German the French film industries during the 1930s.[1] He also directed two films. He worked on a single British film The Street Singer in 1937.[2] Hollywood star Hedy Lamarr purchased the rights to one of his stories, but objections from the Hays Office led her to make numerous changes and the 1947 film Dishonored Lady that resulted had little resemblance to his story.[3]
