Stuart Levy (producer)

Stuart Levy (30 November 1907 – 3 June 1966)[1] was a British film producer best known for his long association with Nat Cohen with whom he founded and ran Anglo-Amalgamated, making such productions as the Edgar Wallace Mysteries.[2][3][4] He was born in Hendon, London and died in London. He has been described as a significant but "obscure" figure.[5]

He owned the horse Anglo (named after Anglo-Amalgamated), which won the Grand National in March 1966.[6] Levy died of a heart attack at home.[7] He left behind £335,152.[8]

His wife died in 1954. They had one child, a daughter called Sally, who died in July 1962 when she fell from the window of the apartment she lived in with her father. [9][10] Her death was recorded as an accident.[11]
