American citizen who worked as a Culver City policeman during the 1920s. This led to some assignments working on Hal Roach productions; it is likely that his involvement in the films listed on this page was purely for set security without necessarily having an acting role in the films. His brother, Ernest Tucker (1904-1938), worked for the Hal Roach Studios as a prop man on the Our Gang series before joining the Culver City Fire Department.
