Monte Montague
Walter Harry "Monte" Montague (April 23, 1891 – April 6, 1959) was an American film actor and stuntman. He appeared in more than 190 films between 1920 and 1954.
Born in Somerset, Kentucky and raised in Cincinnati, Ohio, Montague was one of four children born to Nannie Davis and Oliver H. Montague.
A circus tumbler at age seven, Montague was eventually recognized as among "filmdom's most noted circus clowns", as well as "one of the best screen comedians in the profession." The years preceding his 1920 screen debut featured stints with Ringling Brothers, Hagenbech and Wallace, Barnum and Bailey, Al G. Barnes, Sells Floto, and Cooper and Lentz.
On February 13, 1923, Montague married Mary Margaret Basolo. They had one child, Mary Louise Montague, who worked briefly as a child actress in films during the 1920s, appearing at least once—billed alternately as "Baby Montague" or "Monte Mongtague Jr."—alongside her father, in 1927's The Rambling Ranger.
Montague died in 1959 at age 67, in Burbank, California, survived by his wife, his mother, his daughter, and all three siblings.
