BIOGRAPHY

From Wikipedia, the free encyclopediaForrester Harvey (27 June 1884 – 14 December 1945) was an Irish film actor.From 1922 until his death year Harvey appeared in more than 115 films. He was credited for about two-thirds of his film appearances, but some of his roles were uncredited. The burly actor with a mustache mostly played comic supporting roles, often as an innkeeper. His best-known role was Beamish in the first two Tarzan films starring Johnny Weissmuller. Together with Claude Rains, he played in The Invisible Man, as a tavern owner and husband of a hysterical Una OConnor, and in The Wolf Man. He appeared in two films for Alfred Hitchcock, first in his British silent film The Ring (1927), later in Hitchcocks Hollywood debut Rebecca (1940). A number of reference works incorrectly identify him as having played Little Marias father in Frankenstein. Harveys interment was in California.
