Edward Waller (June 14, 1889 – August 20, 1977) was an American stage, film and television actor.

Early years

Waller's involvement with dramatics began when he was a student at the University of Wisconsin.[1]

Career

Stage

Waller performed in vaudeville and the legitimate theater before he entered films in Hollywood. His professional stage debut came in Chicago, Illinois. An item published in The Indianapolis News May 3, 1923, reported, "He has had several years' experience as leading man and also as director, and produces the Grand Players' plays as well as taking the leading roles."[1] Waller became noted for his character impersonations of elderly men on stage and screen.[2]

Film

Waller appeared in more than 250 sound films between 1929 and 1963 (Thomas M. Feramisco, in his book, The Mummy Unwrapped: Scenes Left on Universal's Cutting Room, has Waller "making the move to celluloid in 1936."),[3] including 116 westerns and six serials. In 1955 Waller appeared as "Old Larky" (under the name credit Eddy C. Waller) in the film Foxfire starring Jane Russell and Jeff Chandler. He is best remembered as Nugget Clark, the sidekick in many films starring Allan 'Rocky' Lane between 1947 and 1953.

Television

In 1955, Waller became Rusty Lee, the saddle partner to actor Douglas Kennedy in the short-lived television series, Steve Donovan, Western Marshal.[4] After that, he appeared in several A-westerns and television programs and was a semi-regular as Mose Shell, the dedicated stagecoach driver, in nineteen episodes of the NBC western series, Laramie, with John Smith and Robert Fuller.

Waller had a supporting role in the 1957-1958 syndicated series, Casey Jones starring Alan Hale, Jr. Waller played "Red Rock", the train conductor of Casey's Cannonball Express.[4]: 166 [5] He also played John Finney in the 1960-1961 miniseries Daniel Boone, which ran as part of Walt Disney Presents.[4]: 233 

Death

Waller died of a stroke in Los Angeles, California, at the age of eighty-eight. He was buried in Forest Lawn Memorial Park (Hollywood Hills).[6] His wife of forty-nine years of marriage, Doris M. Waller (1902-1977), had died in January 1977.
