James Anderson

Actor · Since 1949
Careers this long are unusual: James Anderson is an American actor who has spent far more time working than being talked about. For much of the audience, James Anderson is Bob Ewell from 'To Kill a Mockingbird', whatever else the credits say. He also turns up in 'Take the Money and Run'. Whatever else appears, comedy runs right through the filmography. The career has been split between cinema and television rather than settled in either.
