20th Century Fox’s story begins in a tiny theater on New York’s Lower East Side. In 1904,
fresh from Hungary, 25-year-old William Fox amazed audiences with his magical hand-
cranked films. The beginnings were humble – folding chairs, a painted wall for a screen --
but the desire to entertain and move people has been at the core of what 20th Century Fox
has been doing ever since. By 1915 Fox’s five-cent movie shows were wildly popular and
his single screen grew first into a chain of 25 theaters around New York City and then into
a movie making business.
Fox left New York in 1915 for the sunny skies of Los Angeles. There he discovered and
shaped the screen’s first movie stars including the cowboy Tom Mix, the movies first sex
symbol, Theda Bara, and boxing champ turned actor George O’Brien. Fox was attuned to
the latest trends and technologies of the industry, pioneering the use of sound with the
development of the Movie tone sound system. Merging with rising movie powerhouse
Twentieth Century Pictures, founded in 1933 by Darryl F. Zanuck and Joseph M. Schenck,
the renamed 20th Century Fox began an unprecedented run of unforgettable movies that
continue to this day.
