Henry G. Saperstein (June 2, 1918-June 24, 1998) was a U.S. film producer and distributor.Saperstein purchased the UPA (United Productions of America) studio from its co-founder, Stephen Bosustow, in 1960, following the unsuccessful release of the Mr. Magoo feature film 1001 Arabian Nights (1959). Through his UPA studio, Saperstein produced the television special Mr. Magoo's Christmas Carol (1962), and The Famous Adventures of Mr. Magoo television series which it spawned, as well as the animated feature Gay Purr-ee (1962).

Working with Toho, Saperstein arranged for U.S. actors to appear in such films as Invasion of Astro-Monster and Frankenstein Conquers the World (both featuring Nick Adams), and War of the Gargantuas with Russ Tamblyn.

#	Fact
1	American International Pictures bought "Key of Keys" for $66,000. However, they quickly realized that it was far too confusing for Western audiences. It was AIP president Henry G. Saperstein who came up with the idea of turning the original inscrutable thriller into a comedy by dubbing comedy dialog over it. As Woody Allen had just scored an unexpected hit with his screenplay for What's New Pussycat (1965), Saperstein hired him and released it under the title What's Up, Tiger Lily? (1966).
2	Worked with Colonel Tom Parker as a licensing agent for Elvis Presley.
