A graduate of the University of Wisconsin, Gangelin worked in both Hollywood and London. A member of the Writers Guild of America since 1940, he served on their Council as well. Paul's screenplays leaned toward melodrama although he was very skilled at spoof-type films. He also wrote the story for My Pal Trigger (1946), Roy Rogers' favorite of all his films.
