Neil McCallum(1929-1976)
- Actor
- Producer
- Writer
Canadian actor who was long resident in the UK. He worked as a
recreational therapist in a mental hospital in his native country, and
claimed he gained more knowledge about acting in that role than he
would do later. He arrived in England in 1949 and studied at London's
Guildhall School of Music and Drama. After working in radio and
theatre, he was given a seven year contract with ABC Television (the
British company) after appearing in the prison drama The Last Mile in
1957. He later branched out into films, but was never to fulfill his
early promise.
