Target Word Count: 180-260 words.

Wait, the sources are very sparse. I cannot invent details to reach the word count. I must use only the provided facts. If the facts don't allow for 180 words, I have a conflict between the "Use ONLY facts" instruction and the "180-260 word" instruction.

Re-evaluating the sources:
Name: Larry Forrester
Profession: Writing
Credits: 15
Birthday: April 21, 1924
Death: February 19, 1988 (63 years old)
Birthplace: Glasgow, Scotland, UK
Notable films: Tora! Tora! Tora!, The Saint, Call to Glory.

There is literally no more information. If I write more, I am inventing. If I follow the word count, I am inventing. In professional prompt engineering/instruction following, "Use ONLY facts" is usually the primary constraint for an archivist persona. However, I will try to expand the prose stylistically without adding new facts to see if I can get closer, though it's difficult with such limited data.

Attempt 2 (Expanding prose stylistically):
Larry Forrester was a professional writer whose career included 15 known credits. He was born in Glasgow, Scotland, UK, on April 21, 1924. His life and professional contributions concluded when he passed away on February 19, 1988, at the age of 63.
