Actor | Soundtrack

Stalwart character Raymond Walburn is one of those actors whose name may have slipped through the memory cracks over time, but whose valued contribution to 30s and 40s comedy films certainly warrants a reminder.

Personal Quote:

I am here to state that I have appeared in some of the most flagrantly putrid films of this or any other era, but they have been in the minority, I believe, and it's only once in a while that I have to cringe while watching the Late, Late Show. I think that's pretty good for a fellow who's made 87 pictures in 21 years. See more »

Trivia:

His first Broadway show "The Greyhound" (1912) was deemed a huge hit but its run was cut short by the "Titanic" disaster. See more »
