Back in the days when ships burned coal, John Moxey's family had a
coal/steel business with depots all over the world; he was born in 1925
in Argentina, where his father was running one of the firm's stations.
Moxey knew from childhood that he was cut out for a job in the picture
business and, following his discharge from the service after World War
II, the battle-fatigued veteran got his start in the editing room. His
first directing job was for British TV, followed by low-budget features
in England, UK and scores of TV assignments in the U.S. He began using
his middle name (Llewellyn) at the suggestion of a numerologist.
