Gregg TolandCinematographer. One of the most inventive and original artists ever to work in Hollywood. More than any cameraman of his time, Toland left his personal imprint on the films he photographed. His experiments with lighting and optics, especially his pioneering use of deep-focus lensing, set industry standards that are still in use today. He won an Academy Award for "Wuthering Heights" (1939) but has achieved legendary status as the man who shot Orson Welles' "Citizen Kane" (1941). Gregg Wesley Toland was born in Charleston, Illinois. He entered films at 15 as an office boy at Fox and became an assistant cameraman the following year, learning his craft from such masters asArthur Edeson and George Barnes. Barnes was so impressed with his abilities that he shared co-photographer credit with him on several films.
