D.W. Griffith (1875-1948) was an American film director, writer, and producer who is often regarded as one of the pioneers of the modern feature film. He is best known for his 1915 film The Birth of a Nation, which revolutionized the filmmaking industry through its innovative storytelling techniques. However, the film has also been criticized for its racist depiction of African Americans. Despite this controversy, Griffiths innovative filmmaking techniques greatly influenced the development of the cinematic language. He is also known for other notable films like Intolerance (1916) and Broken Blossoms (1919).
