Harry Carey
Harry Carey specialized in westerns. His film career began in 1909 during the nickelodeon era. Over the next twenty years, Carey made dozens of silent westerns, both shorts and features. During the transition from silent to talkie films, Carey’s future as a film actor was in doubt, but his first talkie, Trader Horn (1931), revealed a solid, dependable actor whose voice and delivery matched his friendly face, and Carey’s film career, in both westerns and other genres, was revitalized and continued for another twenty years.
Early Life
Accounts of life in the west, in the form of books and stage plays, were popular among easterners in the late 19th century. Harry Carey, born in New York in 1878, was interested in western stories from an early age. He began his acting career with small stock companies. Pneumonia layed him up sometime around 1900, and he used the time to write a melodrama, Montana, although he had never been to the west. From 1902 to 1904, Carey toured in his play. A second play was unsuccessful.
