Barton Hepburn

From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

Barton Hepburn was born on February 28, 1906 in Minneapolis, Minnesota. An actor who specialised in drama and comedy, he was spotted as a stage actor in Los Angeles by the screen director Cecil B. DeMille. He starred in a 1929 production, "Painted Faces", an early film with sound. This was not a stageboard for huge success for Hepburn and he returned to theatre, with a number of appearances at Broadway, until the 1940s when he appeared in a number of films, such as "Hi Diddle Diddle" (1943), "The Bridge of San Luis Rey" (1944), and "A Song for Miss Julie" (1945).

He died in Los Angeles on October 9, 1955.
