description: George Lucas is an American filmmaker and entrepreneur born on May 14, 1944, in Modesto, California. He is best known for creating the Star Wars and Indiana Jones franchises, as well as founding Lucasfilm, LucasArts, and Industrial Light & Magic. Lucas studied cinematography at the University of Southern California (USC) School of Cinematic Arts, where he made a number of short films, including an award-winning sci-fi film, THX 1138.
  
  Lucas's career truly took off with the release of his first feature film, an expanded version of THX 1138, in 1971. However, it was his second film, American Graffiti (1973), that established him as a leading figure in Hollywood. The film, a nostalgic look at the early-1960s American teen culture, was a critical and commercial success, earning five Academy Award nominations and allowing Lucas to pursue his more ambitious projects.
  
  In 1977, Lucas released Star Wars (later subtitled Episode IV: A New Hope), a space opera inspired by the Flash Gordon serials of his youth. The film became a cultural phenomenon, sparking a franchise that took the world by storm. Lucas wrote and directed the original film and its two sequels, The Empire Strikes Back (1980) and Return of the Jedi (1983), although he shared directorial duties on the latter two films.
  
  In 1981, Lucas co-created the Indiana Jones character with director Steven Spielberg, leading to another successful franchise beginning with Raiders of the Lost Ark. Lucas served as the story creator and executive producer for the series.

  Lucas sold his Lucasfilm production company to The Walt Disney Company in 2012. Despite retiring from producing large-scale blockbuster films, he continues to contribute to the industry. Lucas's work has had a significant impact on modern popular culture, and his innovations in the field of special effects and story-driven franchises have left a lasting legacy in Hollywood.
