Biography

  • Jack Jones' career was cut short by a severe leg injury while engaged in stunt work on a John Wayne film in 1935. For a time Jack was a boxer and was named "Jack Jones" by a fight promoter in Amarillo, Texas, who thought that he could not promote a fight with someone named Ferris John Jones. Jack's son, Jack Lawrence Jones, made his one and only movie appearance as the baby in the 1934 film A Blasted Event (1934).
