Actor, Comedian, Singer. His standard characterization was that of a middle-aged "colorful" character man with a high-pitched voice and childlike mannerisms in classic B-Westerns, two-reels, and cliffhanger type films with the likes of the Three Stooges, Laurel & Hardy, Bruce Bennett, and John Wayne. He also worked with actor and film director Preston Sturges on four comedies, "Twentieth Century" (1934), "Remember The Night" (1940), "Christmas In July" (1940), and "The Palm Beach Story" (1942). He was best known for playing the character roles of ship cooks, bootblacks, country club locker attendants, garage attendants, waiters, shoeshine boys, caddies, stable grooms, elevator operators, doormen, bartenders, butlers, bellhops, porters, taxi drivers, valets, townsmen, marine, janitors, cabbies, and cooks, but some were uncredited. He was best known for playing the role of 'Moses' in the classic western film, "The Lawless Nineties" (1936). The film which was directed by Joseph Kane, which was written for the screen by Joseph F. Poland and Scott Pembroke, and which also starred John Wayne, Ann Rutherford, and Harry Woods, tells the story of a federal agent named John Tipton who heads for Wyoming to supervise the vote on whether to join the Union. One group of locals is using dynamite to terrorize the populace and a local newspaper editor is killed. He was born in McDonald, North Carolina, on January 5, 1906. He was educated locally and later made his way to Los Angeles, California, where he set up a shoeshine stand outside of Republic Pictures. He was noticed and then went onto make at least forty films for Republic Pictures usually in the role of a bootblack or shoeshine man. Due to the times, he is a prime example of racial and social stereotyping in the Hollywood film industry. He made his actual film debut playing the role of 'Barbershop Attendant' in the film comedy, "Ladies' Night In A Turkish Bath" (1928). The film which was directed by Edward F. Cline, which was written for the screen by Charlton Andrews, Al Boasberg, and Avery Hopwood, and which all starred Dorothy Mackaill, Jack Mulhall, and Sylvia Ashton, tells the story of Ma Slocum and Pa Slocum who sell up their thriving packed-lunch business (based on Ma's home cooking, Pa's packaging design, and pretty daughter Helen's salesmanship), and move 'uptown' to live the life of the idle rich on the proceeds. But Ma starts worrying about her figure, the neighbour's nephew has his roving eye on Helen, and her construction-worker fiancé feels that the family is getting too 'swell' for his touch; events culminate in a family quarrel that sends the men out to seek solace at a raunchy club, while the women resort to the Turkish Baths. But the night isn't over yet...Besides playing the role of 'Barbershop Attendant' in the film comedy, "Ladies' Night In A Turkish Bath" (1928), and playing the role of 'Moses' in the classic western film, "The Lawless Nineties" (1936), his many other film credits include, "The Galloping Ghost" (1931), "Shanghaied Love" (1931), "Who's Who In The Zoo" (1931), "A Private Scandal" (1931), "Human Targets" (1932), "Dream House" (1932), "Shopping With Wifie" (1932), "The Black Ghost" (1932), "Single-Handed Sanders" (1932), "Mark Of The Spur" (1932), "Police Court" (1932), "The County Fair" (1932), "The Arm Of The Law" (1932), "Flames" (1932), "The Loud Mouth" (1932), "The Hurricane Express" (1932), "American Madness" (1932), "Out Of Singapore" (1932), "The Cabin In The Cotton" (1932), "Hat Check Girl" (1932), "I Am A Fugitive From A Chain Gang" (1932), "A Strange Adventure" (1932), "Robbers' Roost" (1932, He played the role of 'Snowflake' and he sang the song "All God's Chillun," in the film), "Fast Workers" (1933), "Gabriel Over The White House" (1933), "The Mind Reader" (1933), "Central Airport" (1933), "Gold Diggers Of 1933" (1933), "The Silk Express" (1933), "The Mayor Of Hell" (1933), "Don't Bet On Love" (1933), "Deluge" (1933), "Goodbye Again" (1933), "Saturday's Millions" (1933), "Meet The Baron" (1933), "Only Yesterday" (1933), "Good-Bye Love" (1933), "Before Midnight" (1933), "The Women In His Life" (1933), "King For A Night" (1933), "Fugitive Lovers" (1934), "Palooka" (1934), "Ever Since Eve" (1934), "Riptide" (1934), "Sleepers East" (1934), "Twentieth Century" (1934), "Woman Haters" (1934), "I Hate Women" (1934), "Half A Sinner" (1934), "Operator 13" (1934), "Here Comes The Groom" (1934), "Murder In The Private Car" (1934), "Here Comes The Navy" (1934, He played the role of 'Cookie' and sang the song "Oh, Promise Me," in the film), "Handy Andy" (1934), "Good Morning, Eve!"
