Tom London(1889-1963)
- Actor
A character actor and veteran of hundreds of Hollywood westerns, Tom
London seemed to be born in the saddle. As a trick rider he performed
riding specialties in a number of films. His career started in the
teens and through the 1920s he alternated between good guy and bad. He
made appearances in non-westerns such as All Quiet on the Western Front (1930) and Platinum Blonde (1931), but
westerns were his mainstay. When the "B" western disappeared in the
mid-'50s, so did his career. He appeared in only a handful of film for
the rest of the decade.
