Tom Moore

TOM MOORE was born in County Meath, Ireland, on May 1st., and in youth moved to America with his family. The Moore home was established in Toledo, Ohio, and it was there that Tom received his education. Chicago was the scene of Mr. Moore's first stage experience, he playing in stock in that city. Gradually his name became familiar to patrons of theatres throughout the nation, as Mr. Moore soon became the leading man of a road company. Then when the Kalem Company was at its zenith of popularity, the smiling Tom was engaged as leading man for Alice Joyce. Since then he has appeared continuously on the screen, his winning personality endearing him to thousands of film "fans." He is an able athlete, reads considerably, and evinces a lively interest in boxing and baseball. Mr. Moore is 5 feet 10 1/2 inches tall, weighs 142 lbs., and has light brown hair and blue eyes.
