Notes:
Muller was a prodigy for writing and acting in theatrical productions who focused more on writing in the late 1950s; he wrote for Jack Benny but became best known for TV Studio One and Philco Theater; his greatest success was with Rankin-Bass and their TV holiday specials, with Rudolph the Red-Nose Reindeer being their breakthrough hit and broadcast decades later; Muller wrote additional holiday teleplays and screenplays in his career.
