Allan Adler (1916) was known as the "Silversmith to the stars". He was a Los Angeles Silversmith and son-in-law of noted silversmith Porter Blanchard. Allan Adler has a rich history and has created table settings for clients including such notables as Frank Sinatra, Michael Jackson, Paul Newman, Clark Gable, Eleanor Roosevelt and Katherine Hepburn. The American Film Institute's Silver Star statuette is his creation, as are the solid gold Oscar mementos presented to the winners of the prestigious Academy Award.
The Smithsonian Institute has honored his extraordinary contribution to twentieth century design and his techniques have been documented and video taped, thus ensuring that future generations will know how a master silversmith worked.
