Translated from his official website:

Georges Vaglio, born August 9, 1922, in Nice, was a French film sound engineer.

He entered the world of cinema at a very young age, as his father was an electrician and lighting technician at the Nicea Studios in Saint-Laurent-du-Var and at the Victorine Studios in Nice before World War II.

He developed a passion for sound. He worked closely with leading French engineers such as Robert William Sivel and Louis Hochet, and was a favorite sound engineer of Danièle Huillet and Jean-Marie Straub for their historical and musical films; his expertise in reproducing analog sound using his Nagra III and IV recorders is universally recognized.

He was the first to experiment with his own lavalier microphones on a film set ("Is Paris Burning?" in 1966).

He contributed to two Oscar-winning films for sound under the direction of William Sivel ("The Wild State" and "The Passerby of Sans-Souci").

He participated in at least 145 film shoots during a career spanning more than fifty years.
