What was Federico's background?

Italian director Federico Fellini was among the most intensely autobiographical film directors the cinema has known. After holding jobs as a crime reporter and a caricature artist, Fellini began his film career as a gag writer for Italian actor Aldo Fabrizi. He later turned to directing, and won the Foreign Language Film Oscar for Federico Fellini's 8½, as well as the Cannes Film Festival Award for Best Film for La Dolce Vita. Often outspoken, Fellini once said, "The producer is an authoritarian figure who risks nothing, presumes to know public taste, and always wants to change the end of the film."
