William Hatton was a movie actor who appeared in almost five hundred
movies, including a stint of being paired in 1920s comedies with
Wallace Beery.
Although Hatton enjoyed a successful silent film career, sound
helped to boost Hatton's career and making him best remembered as
the tobacco-chewing, rip snorting Rusty Joslin in the Three
Mesquiteers series.
Fans of the TV series Adventures of Superman remember him for
playing eccentric characters in the episodes "Dagger Island" and
"The Prince Albert Coat".
He was also in the Rough Riders series and appeared as Johnny Mack
Brown's sidekick as well. His last Western was, fittingly, Requiem
for a Gunfighter (1965).
Hatton has a "Star" on the Hollywood Walk of Fame. |
