Biography

His relationship, if any, to baseball legend Babe Ruth yet to be established, the equally hefty Marshall Ruth played professional football prior to entering films in the mid-'20s as a technical advisor on a Fox comedy short. Ruth, who weighed in at 230 pounds, would use his hefty stature as a comedic tool in countless feature films and comedy shorts to come, more often than not in unbilled bits. He made his final screen appearance shortly before his death in 1953. ~ Hans J. Wollstein, All Movie Guide
