Biography
John Hugh Elliott (July 5, 1876 – December 12, 1956) was an American actor who appeared on Broadway and in over 300 films during his career. He worked sporadically during the silent film era, but with the advent of sound his career took off, where he worked constantly for 25 years, finding a particular niche in "B" westerns.
His versatility allowed him to play both "good guys" and "bad guys" with equal aplomb, working right up until his death in 1956.
