- Was Vice President in charge of production at Paramount Pictures (1944-1950) before he produced Giant (1956) for Warner Bros.
- Owned film distribution company Henry Ginsberg Distributing Corp., of New York City, formed in 1925.
- As general manager of Hal Roach Studios from 1931 to 1936, Ginsberg acquired an unsavory reputation as a hatchet man. His ruthless cost-cutting, penchant for intrigue, and insistence that the Roach comedies could always be produced faster and cheaper, made him a feared and hated figure in the otherwise genial atmosphere of Roach's "Lot of Fun". Ginsberg particularly did not get along with comedian Stan Laurel, who nicknamed him "The Expediter".
- General manager of Selznick International Pictures from 1936 to 1944.
