Timothy Farrell
Biography
Timothy Farrell was an American actor who worked mostly in low-budget exploitation pictures, among them the Ed Wood films Jail Bait (1954), The Violent Years (1956) and Glen or Glenda (1953). Raised in Los Angeles, he served in the Army Air Corps during World War II and held a bailiff's post with the Los Angeles marshal's department while taking parts in movies. In Test Tube Babies (1948) he was a doctor who reassured a young couple about test-tube fertilization. George Weiss produced that film and Glen or Glenda, and he kept casting Farrell in exploitation features through the 1950s. Farrell's recurring characters included the gym owner Umberto Scalli, played in Devil's Sleep, Racket Girls and Dance Hall Racket, and Joe the Pimp in Girl Gang (1954) and Gun Girls. He also had a bailiff role in George Cukor's A Star Is Born and appeared as a bailiff on the television series Accused.
