Born in Vienna, Austria, in 1879, screenwriter Carl Krusada attended that city's prestigious Polytechnic Institute and Conservatory of Music. Emigrating to the US, he studied at Dearborn College in Chicago. He got into the film business in 1917 as a writer and stayed in it until the early 1940s, turning out well over 100 screenplays. Krusada did a lot of work at Universal Pictures during the silent era, but once sound came in most of the work he got was for minor "B" independent studios like Monogram and even lower-rung "Z" studios like Reliable, Cosmopolitan and Aywon, among others. In the 1930s and 1940s he did a lot of work for shoestring producers
