Robb White

Writer 'Robb White' (qv) was partnered with "gimmick horror film" king 'William Castle' (qv) during Castle's most popular and productive period. Born in the Philippines, White was a preacher's son who held a wide variety of jobs before landing in the Navy during World War II. He initially collaborated with Castle on the short-lived TV series _Men of Annapolis (1957)_ (qv), then joined forces with the enterprising producer-director on the horror thrillers _Macabre (1958)_ (qv), _House on Haunted Hill (1959)_ (qv), _The Tingler (1959)_ (qv), _Homicidal (1961)_ (qv), and the kiddie-oriented _13 Ghosts (1960)_ (qv). He later went back to TV writing, including _Perry Mason (1957)_ (qv).::Tom Weaver <TomWeavr@aol.com>
