Portrait of Walter Connolly

Walter Connolly

Bio: The name may have been forgotten, especially today (seven decades later), but the portly, apoplectic, exasperated figure on the 1930s screen wasn't. While his film career, save a couple of silents, lasted a paltry seven years (1932-1939), character actor Walter Connolly certainly ran the distance
Born: Fri, Apr 08 1887
Birthplace: Cincinnati, Ohio, USA

Death: Tue, May 28 1940
Walter Connolly is 53 years old
