Did you know

  • Trivia
    The Teutonic actor began acting in German films billed as Rudolph Amendt and continued to use his real name after moving to Hollywood in the early 1930s. In 1938 he changed his moniker to Robert O. Davis, for obvious reasons, and used it throughout WWII playing a series of Nazi spies and officers. He changed his name once again to Rudolph Anders in post-war years.
