Buddy Messinger (born Melvin Joseph Messinger; 26 October 1907 – 25 October 1965) was an American actor who was cast in substantial roles in dozens of films during the silent film era. He began his career as a jovial chubby child actor. With the advent of sound films he was relegated mostly to bit parts.[1][2]

His sister Gertrude Messinger was also a child actor. They appeared in several Fox fairytale movies for children.[3] She transitioned to speaking roles in B-movies during the 1930s continuing her career into the 1950s.

He featured in a series of "Edgar" films including Edgar's Sunday Courtship, Edgar Camps Out, and Edgar's Little Saw in 1920 and 1921.[3]

He appeared in a series of comedy films for Century Film Corporation. He starred in a 22-minute haunted house comedy for Universal called What an Eye in 1924 with Hilliard Karr.[4]

In the 1950s and 1960s he also worked as an assistant director.[5]

He married Marjorie Montgomery in 1932.[citation needed]
