From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
Harry Crocker (July 2, 1893 - May 23, 1958) was a film star of the 1920s and who starred in Charlie Chaplin's The Circus in 1928. He was Chaplin's personal assistant until he was sacked during the making of Chaplin's City Lights in 1930. He later reconciled with Chaplin and maintained a friendship until the comedian left America in 1952.
His grandfather was Charles Crocker (1822-1888) who had been a builder of the Central Pacific Railroad[citation needed] and his uncle was the philanthropist William H. Crocker, founder and president of Crocker National Bank.
