Raymond William Hatton (1883 or 1884 – October 21, 1971) was an American film actor who appeared in almost 500 motion pictures.

Early years

Hatton was born in Red Oak, Iowa. His physician father steered him toward a career in medicine. However, Hatton had become enamored of being on stage after he acted in a school play, and he left home to go into acting as a career.[1]

Career

Hatton was part of a vaudeville act that went to Hollywood in 1911.[2] There, he established a successful silent film career, including a stint being paired in 1920s comedies with Wallace Beery.[2] During the sound era, though, his career soon skidded and he usually played smaller supporting roles, including the tobacco-chewing, rowdy character Rusty Joslin in The Three Mesquiteers Western B picture series. By the 1950s, Hatton's acting roles expanded into television, where he appeared in various series, including the Adventures of Superman.

He has a star in the Motion Picture section of the Hollywood Walk of Fame at 1708 Vine Street.[3]

Death

Hatton was found dead on October 21, 1971, in Palmdale, California, aged 84.[1]
