Charles Morton (actor)

Charles Morton (28 January 1908 in Illinois, USA – 26 October 1966 in North Hollywood, California) was an American actor.

Morton's career started late in the silent era, first as a leading man, continued into sound features and finally television.

Audiences first discovered the handsome youth that same year opposite the studio's leading flapper, Madge Bellamy, in Colleen, one of the era's many comedy-dramas.

Morton was also a member of the ultimately tragic circus troupe in F. W. Murnau's near-classic 4 Devils, among the most mourned of the lost films of the silent era.

He died at the age of 58, was cremated and his ashes interred in an unmarked grave in Valhalla Memorial Park, North Hollywood, Los Angeles County, California, in Block G, Section 6755, Lot 1.
