Major Daniel Morris Angel (14 May 1911 – 13 December 1999) was a leading British film producer who was responsible for several notable British films during the 1950s, such as Another Man's Poison (1952), The Sea Shall Not Have Them (1954), Reach for the Sky (1956), and Carve Her Name with Pride (1958).
[1] One obituary called him "An irascible man with strong opinions and a somewhat draconian manner, Angel was utterly dedicated to the medium of film.
He spent two years in base hospital then was shipped to England, where he rejoined the family firm, which had become Angel's and Berman's.
He wrote to King George VI and asked permission to film the Royal stables.
