THOMAS MEIGHAN

 

From Stars of the Photoplay (1924)

THOMAS MEIGHAN broke into the movies via the stage. Secured his first engagement as an extra in "Mistress Nell," in Pittsburgh, his home town. Climbed to bigger and better roles and, as the lead in George Ade's "The College Widow," became a vital figure in the theatre. First role on the screen was therefore an important one, having served his apprenticeship on the speaking stage. From leading man to many of the stars, he rose to stardom. He appeared in "Pied Piper Malone" and "The Confidence Man." Height, six feet; weight, 170 pounds; black hair, brown eyes. Married.
