Tony Kaye (born 1952, UK) is an advertising and film director. In a controversy regarding his film "American History X", Kaye attempted to remove his name from the credits, preferring instead to invoke the pseudonym Alan Smithee. After New Line told Kaye he couldn't use the Alan Smithee pseudonym and to pick a different name, he chose Humpty Dumpty. Wikipedia
