William Winckler Bio
Writer, producer, director and actor William Winckler comes from a show-business background, as his father, Robert "Bobby" Winckler, was a well-know child actor in the 1930s and '40s. Following in his late father's footsteps, William also began his career as an actor, appearing on such TV shows as "Remington Steele," "Knight Rider" and "The Fall Guy." Winckler also wrote and produced two syndicated television series: the animated sci-fi adventure "Tekkaman the Space Knight" and the live-action comedy program "Short Ribbs," starring Billy Barty.

In 2001, William formed his own production company, William Winckler Productions, patterned in part after American International Pictures (AIP) -- a successful 1950s/1960s low-budget production house -- to write, produce, direct and act in his own cult films. His first venture was "The Double-D Avenger," a comedy reuniting three famous Russ Meyer actresses: Kitten Natividad, Haji and Raven De La Croix. The film received copious kudos, including a review in Variety hailing the picture as "a cheerfully silly ode to larger-than-life femininity." His latest film, "William Winckler's Frankenstein Vs. The Creature From Blood Cove," is already receiving similarly rave reviews, and is presently scheduled for DVD release in early October. It will be available in the US through Amazon.com and other retailers.
