Olin Caldwell Francis (September 13, 1891 Mooreville, Mississippi - June 30, 1952 Hollywood, California) was an American actor.
Francis graduated in engineering from the University of Mississippi and acted on stage before he went to Hollywood. He was one of the founders of the Screen Actors Guild. He performed in silent films, including melodramas, romances and Westerns.[1] He starred in a few films early in his career, but he more frequently had smaller parts such as a deputy sheriff, a henchman, or a member of a posse.[2] His films included The Kid Brother (1927), Fightin' Devil (1922), and A Knight of the West (1921).
On June 30, 1952, Francis died at Culver City Hospital, aged 60.[3]
