Biography

Kermit Maynard was an American actor and stuntman who appeared in 280 films from 1927 to 1962. Born in Vevay, Indiana, he also competed as a rodeo rider, winning a Pacific Coast trick-riding championship at the Pendleton Round-Up in 1933, and early in his career promoters marketed him as Tex Maynard. From 1935 to 1937 he starred in 18 films for Ambassador Pictures, the company producer Maurice Conn established in 1934; the last of these was Roaring Six Guns. Mild-mannered and agreeable, he worked steadily in supporting parts in dozens of westerns, serials, Hollywood features and television episodes through 1962. When producers cast multiple cowboy stars in one feature, he was among the posse in Trail of Robin Hood (1950) and Once Upon a Horse.
