Biography

Hirliman was born September 8, 1901 in Fort Lee, New Jersey.

He married Eleanor Hunt, an actress, and the couple adopted Georgelle Hirliman.

He started his career at the Life Photo Film Corporation as an office boy and worked his way up to film director at Hirlagraph Motion Pictures, the largest film lab at that time. In 1924, his production company purchased the Solax Studios and renovated the two stages, and studios. The studio building was later destroyed in a fire.

When he moved to Hollywood, he worked five years at Consolidated Films working on production and financing. During his tenure there, he made 30 feature films. In 1935, Hirliman produced De la Sarten a Fuego / From the Frying Pan into the Fire, an English and duel Spanish production. In 1936, he produced Reefer Madness in 1936.
