FACTS ABOUT
AUTHOR OF
"VALIANT'

Holworthy Hall, playwright and
man of letters, scion of one of the
earliest American families and dis
tinguished in the air service of the
Army, is one of the latest literary
notables whose work Is receiving
worldwide presentation through
the medium of Fox Movietone.
The Valiant" gripping stage
drama which Hall wrote in vol-
laboration with Robert Mid1lemass
and which won wide cOmmenda-
tion as a play, has been adapted
to the speaking screen as a Fox
Movietone all-dialog production,
under the direction of William K.
Howard. 1t is the new attraction
at the Fox Theater.
Harold Evert Porter is the real
name of the playwright and it was
thus he was widely known in the
social and literary circles Of Bos-
ton and it's vicinity long before he
adopted "Holworthy Hail. as his
pen name. Born in Hyde Park,
Mass, in 1887, he graduated from
Harvard in 1909 and soon there
after became associated with
Little, Brown & Co., Boston pub
fishers.
In conjunction with his edito-
rial work he developed a penchant
for writing and became regular
contributor to magazines. Stage
writing attracted him and he won
success with a series of dramas and
comedies. including MY Next
Imitation" Henry of Navarro"
Pepper" What He Least Ex-
pected." THE Man Nobody Knew"
"Six Best Cellars" and The
Valiant" with Robert Middlemass.
Taking up aviation as an avoca-
ton. the busy author soon mas
tered its technique as readily as he
had done that Of the literary field
and saw much air service during
the World War. He now holds
the rank of major in the Air Ser
vice, Officers Reserve Corps. and
has written two technical books
on his hobby, Aerial Observation"
and THE Army Corps Pilot"
Affiliation with patriotic organ
izations is another Holworthy Hall
leaning, for he Is a member of the
Sons of the American Revolution.
Society Of Foreign Wars, Sons Of
Veterans, Mayflower, Descendants
Military Order of the World War,
American Legion, National Aero
Association and Authors League.
AS successful author, not tied
down by ordinary restrictions no
