Huntley Gordon

HUNTLEY GORDON was born in Montreal, Canada, on October 18., and received his education there and at the Bannister Court School, Hampshire, England. After graduating he entered the Bank of Montreal, and not being content, became a broker. Yearning for a stage career, he came to New York and found a small part in the Brady extravaganza, "Life." For three years he continued to play small parts, meanwhile gaining much needed experience when he met a friend connected with the Vitagraph Company who offered him a part in a Vitagraph picture. He accepted and was later selected by Ralph Ince as a "find." He is a great sportsman, particularly favoring yachting, though he is an expert hockey player, and has played football. Mr. Gordon is 6 feet in height, weighs 175 lbs., and has light brown hair and blue eyes.
