 First
Major Screen Credit: Cameron of the Royal Mounted (1921)
A handsome matinee idol from France, with a pronounced widow's peak,
Gaston Glass often starred in Northwest melodramas the likes of
Cameron of the Royal Mounted (1922) and Call of the Klondike (1926),
but also appeared in more mainstream Western fare such as Untamed
Justice (1929).
A victim of talkies, Glass left acting to become a production
manager for Poverty Row's only woman producer, Fanchon Royer, and
later functioned as an assistant director at 20th Century Fox. He
was married to Hollywood chorus girl Bo Peep Karlin.
He appeared in 100 films between 1917 and 1943. |
