Burly American actor. His 1942 "Young Men's Draft Card" at Ancestry says his weight is 333 lbs! His birth name is assumed from his parents' names on their 1900 Denver Marriage Record and their 1900 and 1910 Census's. About 1915, the family moved to Cheyenne, WY and started using the surname "Lipson" and Jack attended a business college. In 1930, both Jack and his wife, Millie, were "motion picture actors" and in 1940 he was a "night club manager". -- Died 12:30am at Veterans Administration Center, Los Angeles, California, USA. (unsure why his CADI entry says Madera County) -- World War I veteran. -- Usual occupation: Actor and Entertainer. Industry or business: Theatre and Night Club. -- Parents: Louis Lipson [really Lipschitz] (b. Poland) and Sarah Goldfarbin (b. Colorado). -- Usual residence: 7270 Waring Avenue, (Hollywood) Los Angeles, California. -- REAL cause of death: transverse myelitis (inflammation of the spinal cord). Some sources incorrectly list him in One-Horse Farmers (1934), Beginner's Luck (1935) and The Lucky Corner (1936). |
