John Lloyd Balderston (October 22, 1889 – March 8, 1954) American screenwriter who began on Broadway adapting Hamilton Deane’s British version of Dracula in 1927 and had his own success the following year as the co-author of Berkeley Square with J.C. Squire. His credits on Frankenstein (1931) and Dracula’s Daughter (1936) are based on unused outlines, but he did script Dracula (1930), The Mummy (1933) and Bride of Frankenstein (1935). In the early 1950s Balderston claimed his conception of Frankenstein’s Monster had been unfairly exploited by Universal and successfully sued the studio.
