Matt Cimber (born Thomas Vitale Ottaviano; January 12, 1936) is an American producer, director, and writer. He is known for directing genre films including The Candy Tangerine Man, The Witch Who Came from the Sea, Hundra, and Butterfly. Cimber has been called "an unsung hero of 70s exploitation cinema." He was co-founder and director of the Gorgeous Ladies of Wrestling (GLOW) professional wrestling promotion and syndicated television series. Cimber also occasionally acts in films, television, and theatre. Cimber was the third husband of actress Jayne Mansfield, and they had a son together, Antonio, born in 1965.
