Louis "L. M." Wells (February 5, 1862 – January 1, 1923) was an American actor of the silent film era.
A tall, robust actor who was nicknamed "Daddy," L. M. appeared in 51 films between 1912 and 1922 — many of which were Universal westerns[1] — and often was cast as a butler.
Before becoming an actor, he dabbled as a journalist, poet, and short story writer.
He died in Los Angeles on January 1, 1923, and was survived by his wife, Hallie Price.
