Frank Ferguson

Actor
78 years (Dec 25, 1899 – Sep 12, 1978)Ferndale, California, USA
Whatever else has changed around him, Frank Ferguson has remained a working actor whose career has outlived most of the formats it was recorded on. Steady employment, rather than one breakout, gives the career its shape. Of everything on the filmography, 'Johnny Guitar' is the work that traveled the furthest. 'Bud Abbott and Lou Costello Meet Frankenstein' is a second title with real reach. Whatever else appears, drama runs right through the filmography.
