Biography

American stage and film actor Don Dillaway began his career on Broadway in the 1920s and later moved into film and television. Born in New York City in 1903, he studied law in Buffalo before moving to New York and choosing entertainment instead. He made his Broadway debut in The Backslapper in 1925 and acted for two seasons in Papa Juan with Otis Skinner. His film debut came in Meet the Widow in 1930. During the 1930s he took supporting roles, including in Pack Up Your Troubles (1932), the second Laurel and Hardy feature, while his later film work in the 1940s and 1950s often consisted of smaller or uncredited parts. He appeared on many television programs, among them Maverick, Bonanza, Perry Mason, and The Munsters. After retiring in 1967 following a role on The Wild Wild West, he led RKO's New Talent Department and worked as an actors' agent.
