Biography

Lantern-jawed Warner P. Richmond (the initial stood for Paul) had enjoyed a stage career touring with such plays as Eyes of Youth, Trail of the Lonesome Pine, and As a Man Thinks, prior to making his screen debut for the Vitagraph company in 1912. Typecast as a villain almost from the beginning, Richmond enjoyed one of the busiest and longest careers in Hollywood history, often playing characters with names such as Danny, the Dude, Bowery Blackie, or Pop Eye Jackson. In his later years, Richmond turned up in scores of B-Westerns, usually not on the side of the angels. He finished his long career playing villains in Eddie Dean music Westerns for PRC. ~ Hans J.
