Charles Eaton (actor)
Charles Eaton (June 22, 1910 – August 15, 2004) was an American juvenile stage and film performer, and the most important performing male member of the clan once referred to as the Seven Little Eatons. At one time or another, all the siblings appeared in ''The Ziegfeld Follies'' each year between 1918 through 1923.
==Career==
With his sister Doris Eaton Travis, Eaton made his Broadway debut in the 1918 version of ''Mother Carey's Chickens''. In a 1928 Broadway production called ''Skidding,'' which ran for 472 performances, Eaton created the role of ''Andy Hardy''. Eaton acted in ten Broadway shows in total, including ''The Awakening ''and ''The Ziegfeld Follies'' of 1921, in which he shared the stage with W. C. Fields, ''A Royal Fandango,'' with Ethel Barrymore, ''Peter Pan'', and ''Tommy''. He also performed at vaudeville's storied ''Palace Theatre''; toured in plays like ''Don't Count Your Chickens'' with Mary Boland; and acted in a dozen, mainly forgettable films in the late 1920s and early 1930s
He began his film career in 1921, playing Wallace Reid as a child in ''Forever'' (1921), the first screen version of Gerald du Maurier's play ''Peter Ibbetson''. He successfully made the jump to 'talkies', and starred opposite Helen Twelvetrees as the correspondence-school detective in the comedy ''The Ghost Talks'' (1929), which was Fox Film Corporation's first talking picture; and as Marguerite Churchill's brother in ''Harmony at Home'' (1930). His last film was ''Sons of the Sea'', an English film, in 1939.
Offers from both Broadway and Hollywood dried up with the arrival of the Depression, and eventually Eaton turned to alcohol, as did his sisters Pearl and Broadway star, Mary Eaton. Mary died in 1948 of liver problems brought on by her drinking, and Pearl was tragically murdered a decade later, but, although the case was ruled a homicide the crime has never been solved.
