Jimmy Conlin

From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

Jimmy Conlin (October 14, 1884 – May 7, 1962) was an American character actor.

Conlin started out in Vaudeville, where he and his first wife Myrtle Glass were billed as "Conlin & Glass."

Recognizable by his small frame and quirky appearance, Conlin began appearing in movies in the early 1930s. Conlin portrayed many roles (many of them uncredited), eventually becoming a member of Preston Sturges' unofficial stock company, appearing in nine films directed by Sturges.
