Raymond Mckee

RAYMOND MCKEE was born in Iowa, and received his education in Illinois. He is possessed of a wide legitimate stage experience, having served not only as an actor, but also as a manager. He has appeared in stock in Chicago, Atlanta and New York, and has assumed many leading roles in successful musical comedies on the Broadway stage. Edison launched him on a screen career, after which he appeared for many of the more important producers. As leading man for Shirley Mason, he created what is probably a record, appearing with the diminutive star in 19 pictures. He boasts of a grandfather, now 100 years old and residing with him in Hollywood, who was Abraham Lincoln's campaign manager. Mr. McKee is married to charming Marguerite Courtot, also a screen star, raises Boston bull pups as a hobby, and is 5 feet 8 inches tall, weighs 150 lbs., and has brown hair and gray eyes.
