Ronald Coleman

RONALD COLEMAN, one of the latest screen "finds," was born in Richmond, Surrey, England, and educated there. His first experience was on the English stage, where his successes included a starring engagement in Richard Bennett's role in the American play, "Damaged Goods." After the World War, he resumed his work in England, making several photoplays while he was appearing on the stage. In 1920, he came to America for the first time, immediately finding an engagement on the New York stage. It was during the run of this play that Henry King discovered him and signed him for the leading role opposite Lillian Gish in "The White Sister." Mr. Coleman is an enthusiastic motorist, plays golf and is 5 feet 10 inches tall, weighs 165 lbs., and has sandy hair and brown eyes.
