Jack Irving Schwarz (December 19, 1896 – January 6, 1987) was a producer of the Frank Buck movie Tiger Fangs.
Jack Schwarz was born in Chicago, the son of Adolph Schwarz, a traveling clothing salesman, and Dora (Goodman) Schwarz, according to the 1910 US census.
Schwarz was an independent producer for Eagle-Lion Films and Producers Releasing Corporation, among others. He made many movies, among them Baby Face Morgan (1942), The Payoff (1942), The Boss of Big Town (1942), The Girl from Monterrey (1943), Submarine Base (1943), Dixie Jamboree (1944), Lady in the Death House (1944), Machine Gun Mama (1944), Gold Raiders (1951), The Enchanted Forest (1945), Heading for Heaven (1947), The Fighting Stallion (1950), The Hoodlum (1951), and Son of the Renegade (1953).
In 1945, Schwarz filed a plagiarism action against Universal Pictures and its executives. He alleged that the studio had pirated a romantic movie manuscript that contained musical themes, and used the material in one of the studio's own movie productions, His Butler’s Sister (1943), which allegedly involved a similar theme. The court read the scenario, viewed the movie, and held in favor of the studio and its executives.
