Joseph Kilgour

JOSEPH KILGOUR was born in a small town in Ontario, Canada, and was educated there and in England, where his stage career was started. Like many of the older character actors of the stage, Mr. Kilgour turned to the screen after twenty years behind the footlights. "Arizona" and "The Easiest Way" stand out prominently among his many stage successes, the latter play later affording him an excellent screen vehicle. Mr. Kilgour, a veteran of the stage, is likewise a veteran of the silent drama, having been among those present in the earliest two reel dramas. He is a keen student and a diligent reader, spending much of his time with his books. He is 5 feet 11 inches tall, weighs 200 lbs., and has dark brown hair and dark gray eyes.
