Career
Career
Schiller was active in the German the French film industries during the 1930s. He also directed two films. He worked on a single British film The Street Singer in 1937. In 1940 he left German-occupied Europe and sailed on the liner Serpa Pinto from Lisbon to New York. Hollywood star Hedy Lamarr bought 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.
