Hale Rice Hamilton (February 28, 1880 – May 19, 1942)[1] was an American actor.

Biography[edit]

Hamilton was born in Topeka, Kansas in 1880. (His birth year is sometimes listed as either 1879 or 1883.) His brother was politician John Daniel Miller Hamilton.[2]

Hamilton's Broadway debut was in Don Caesar's Return (1901).[3]

He was married to three actresses, Jane Oaker, Myrtle Tannehill, and Grace La Rue. Tannehill sued Hamilton, accusing him of being lured away from her by La Rue.[4]

He filed bankruptcy in 1937.[2]
