was a success and was followed
by roles in Gentleman Prefer

comedies.
His first screen appearance was
made in silent days when he a2-
peared with Anita Stewart in THE
Girl Philippa." Later he appeared
with Nancy Carroll in Laughter. ,
Both pictures were produced in
the East.
Hollywood first saw him when
he was brought out from New
York to play in Secrets of the

placed under a long-term contract

Since then he has appeared in
featured roles in many films, such
as "The Wizard of o." Henry
