Ivan Tors (June 12, 1916 - June 4, 1983) was a Hungarian playwright, screenwriter, and film and television producer.
He wrote several plays in his native country before moving to the U.S. just prior to World War II. Long interested in fact-based science fiction (often with an underwater setting), Tors partnered with actor Richard Carlson in the 1950s to create A-Men Films, a production company devoted to making movies about its own fictitious exploits. Under the A-Men banner, Tors wrote and produced films such as Magnetic Monster (1951), Gog (1954), Riders to the Stars (1954) and the TV series Daktari and Flipper.
Tors was married to film actress Constance Dowling from 1955 until her death in 1969.
