Director Born: November 5, 1947 in Paris, France Biography:Parisian-born American film director "Jonathan Kaplan" may have held degrees from the University of Chicago and New York University, but he gained his hands-on education at the "Roger Corman" School of Makin' 'Em Cheap. "Kaplan" apprenticed at Corman's New World Pictures, making his directorial bow with the energetic if parsimonious "Student Nurses" (1971). After a few more low-budgeters, "Kaplan" was allowed to spend a little more time and money on "White Line Fever" (1975), then enjoyed his most lavish budget to date on "Mr. Billion" (1976), a lighthearted and empty-headed caper film starring "Terence Hill", "Valerie Perrine" and "Jackie Gleason". "Kaplan" made Hollywood's A-list with "The Accused" (1988), a fact-based account of a rape victim's quest for justice which featured "Jodie Foster" in her first Academy Award-winning role. ~ Hal Erickson, All Movie Guide
