Biographical History

Harold Lloyd was a prominent comedian and movie actor during the first half of the twentieth century. He was born in Burchard, Nebraska on April 20, 1893 and started his acting career in 1913 as an extra in one-reel movies. In 1914, Lloyd went to work for producer Hal Roach and starred in over 100 one-reel films as "Willie Work" and "Lonesome Luke". In 1917, Lloyd invented his trademark "Glasses" character, the bumbling young man wearing horn-rimmed glasses. Playing this character, he made numerous silent films between 1917 and 1929, including "Safety Last" (1923), and "The Freshman" (1925). He also starred in a number of sound movies including "Movie Crazy" (1932) and "The Sin of Harold Diddlebock" (1947) and was the owner of Harold Lloyd Corporation. Harold Lloyd passed away on March 8, 1971.
