A. W. Hackel, born Aaron William Hackel (December 18, 1882 – October 22, 1959), was an American film producer who founded Supreme Pictures in 1934.
Biography
Hackel was born in Ulanów, Nisko County, Podkarpackie Voivodeship, Poland.[1]
In 1934, Hackel formed Supreme Pictures, at which he contracted Bob Steele for 32 of his Westerns,[2] such as Alias John Law (1935). Hackel also produced 16 Westerns with Johnny Mack Brown.
In 1936, Republic Pictures needed more Westerns and struck a deal with Hackel, who released his films through Republic.[3] After the demise of Supreme Pictures in 1942, Hackel released his films through Monogram Pictures. All of his films were Westerns until Am I Guilty? (1940), a race film. He followed that film with numerous crime dramas, including The Flaming Urge (1953).
