Charles attendedthe University of Michigan, the University of California, Los Angeles and theUniversity of Southern California, attaining a law degree from the latter institution.He was first exposed to the film industry while working as a cameraman duringhis vacations to pay his way through college but in 1928 Feldman began hisprofessional life as an attorney, representing individuals engaged in the motionpicture and entertainment industries, a practice which lasted only four years. In1932 Feldman transitioned out of practicing law and into the agency business,1
founding the Charles K. Feldman Corporation and presiding as president. Havinga prolific and prominent career spanning several decades as a film producer andtalent agent, Feldman pioneered the one picture, packaged deal which married astory property, star and director to a single picture pitched to studios, rather thanthe traditional long-term studio contract. In addition to Feldman’s individualproduction companies, he also formed several with friend Howard Hawks. DuringWorld War II, the two men organized H-F Productions, creating packaged dealsto sell to studios, usually with Hawks as the producer-director. In 1945, theycreated Monterey Productions, with Hawks holding majority share of thecompany while Feldman received the title of executive producer, the companyproduced films such as RED RIVER, but disbanded in 1947. Charles Feldmanwould continue onward with his own companies including Charles K. FeldmanPackages, Helvia Productions, Famous Artists Productions, and Famous ArtistsAgency, producing films and representing talent for several decades. Feldmanmarried twice; firstly to actress Jean Howard in 1934, the couple later divorcing in1948, and secondly to Clotilde Bardot shortly before his death in 1968. CharlesK.
