Chloe Gibson
Chloe Gibson discovered Dirk Bogarde and cast him in "Power Without Glory", which she directed in 1947. The play opened at the Linden Theatre and then transferred to the Fortune Theatre in the west end of London. It was a huge success and Borgarde's film career stemmed from this production. Kenneth More and Dandy Nichols were also in the cast. Chloe went on to become the director general with RTE Irish Television, a post she held for 25 years. Among the television productions she directed were Micheál MacLiammóir's The Importance of Being Oscar, based on the life and works of Oscar Wilde and Jackie MacGowran's Beginning to End from the works of Beckett. She directed a number of plays at the Gate Theatre in Dublin and formed the New Dublin Shakespeare Company with the then owner of the Oscar Theatre, Chris O'Neill. This company toured extensively bringing Shakespeare and the classics to rural areas and schools throughout Ireland.
