Gilbert P. Hamilton
Gilbert P. Hamilton was an American film company executive and director. He worked at Essanay as a cinematographer, headed the St. Louis Motion Picture Company, and then launched the Albuquerque Film Manufacturing Company.
Jack L. Warner described him as a tall sunburned Englishman with walrus mustache and thick accent "like a Kipling character".
As a cinematographer, Hamilton collaborated with playwright and actor Lawrence Lee at Essanay in 1908. His move away from St. Louis Motion Picture Company came after it acquired Frontier Pictures and relocated to Santa Paula, California. Dot Farley followed him to his new studio Albuquerque.
