About this person
Raymond Rohauer was an American film collector and distributor. Rohauer first started his career by curating films at the Coronet Theatre. In the 1950s, he came to prominence as a distributor and reissuer of Buster Keaton movies which he partnered with Keaton for. Rohauer would later acquire various films, such as silent films, which expanded into a film library better known as the Rohauer Library. Rohauer often used tactics to secure the distribution of these films, protect his library by exhibiting low-quality copies of such, and licensing them, which were often contested by his contemporaries and the subject of his controversy. He died on November 10, 1987, with his film library estimated to have 700 titles. Since then, his library has been integrated into the Cohen Film Collection.
