Born in early 1930s to first generation Russian-American parents, His formative years, spent at South Bend, were not happy one. His parents divorced when he was child and his mother, who was alcoholic, died when he was still in school. However, it was while studying at school that he first developed an interest in drama. So, after passing out, he left home to study acting in New York and made his acting debut at Broadway in mid 1950s. Later, he was called to do his military duty and on return, resumed where he left. However, he soon realized that he was better suited as a director than an actor and so from the middle of 1960s began directing movies. Soon, with a string of hits, he established himself in the Hollywood and won many awards and laurels. In the later part of his career, Pollack became prolific producer; but at the same time continued appearing in side roles.
