Personal Quote:
[on working with Ken Maynard] I did six pictures with him, then refused offers after that. He was mean to his horses and mean to the people he thought he could buffalo. He was often half drunk on a picture and sometimes didn't even show up. See more »Trivia:
Met his future wife, Edith Stayart, on the set of Nan of the North (1922) in 1922. See more »Nickname:
