Ferris Taylor


Ferris Taylor was an American film actor and vaudeville performer.
Born in Henrietta, Texas, Taylor owned a vaudeville company, the Taylor Players. Besides his acting, Taylor sometimes sang in vaudeville programs. A 1922 newspaper article noted, "he possesses a deep baritone-basso voice". The group included his brother, Glen H. Taylor, who later became a U.S. senator from Idaho.
In 1930, Taylor went to Hollywood, gaining a few appearances in films in bit parts and as an extra. He eventually appeared in more than 120 films between 1933 and 1958. He also made guest appearances on The Cisco Kid starring Duncan Renaldo and Leo Carillo in the early 1950s.
He died in Hollywood, California from a heart attack.
