Who directed the 1963 film, "The Birds"?

As a 15 year old kid in 1976 I drove from Santa Rosa, CA, to Bodega Bay as my older brother and his fiance relaxed in the back seat of the car. It was cool to visit a few places that were featured in the film.

I remember seeing this movie in Germany as a young child. My Mother and I then walked home and we were scared to death.
