Interesting about Barbara Steele. She was an accomplished producer. I'm thinking of two favorites of mine, The Winds of War (1983), and War and Remembrance (1988), where she also took a couple of small parts.
shareWhat makes an accomplished producer? I thought they were just the money and ultimate say over direction.
Maybe I'm nit-picking. I suppose I could go to IMDb and look up her Producer credits and see what sort of projects she helmed, but being a Movie Producer always makes me think it's someone who has a lot of $$ who just invests it to make more. I'm probably mistaken.

I LOOKED...NINE CREDITS AS PRODUCER...THE TWO MINI-SERIES MENTIONED BY NYCTC7 ARE THE ONLY THINGS IVE HEARD OF OUT OF THE NINE.
OK guys I admit threw in the word 'accomplished' because I'm a big fan of Winds of War and War and Remembrance. I watched some DVD bonus features where it was apparent that the logistics of these productions were enormous and as Associate Producer (Winds) and Producer (Remembrance) she had to accomplish quite a lot.
The Producer credit is a tricky one as it is not always clear what role is being played. Yes in some cases it might just be a passive investor. But it can also be someone who works very, very, hard at getting the thing made.
Janet Hubert. Thr first Aunt Viv from Fresh Prince of Bel-Air. She's a phenomenal actress.
