Personal Quote:
To me the idea of just working is what's fun, I don't give a doggone what kind of part. Walter Huston said it years ago: "I don't care about billing.

He has an entry in Jean Tulard's "Dictionnaire du cinĂ©ma/Les acteurs" published in Paris in 2007 by RobertLaffont/Bouquins (page 14). See more »Star Sign:
