Conway Tearle
Conway Tearle (May 17, 1878 – October 1, 1938) was an Anglo-American stage actor who went on to perform in silent and early sound films.〔
==Early life==
Frederick Conway Levy was born on May 17, 1878 in New York City, the son of the well-known British-born cornetist Jules Levy (1838-1903) and American actress Marianne “Minnie” Conway (1852-1896).〔(Ancestry.ca:Marianne "Minnie" Conway ) Retrieved September 4, 2014〕 Tearle also had a sister, and a half-brother, musician Jules Levy, Jr., from his father's previous marriage.〔Death of Jules Levy - The Washington Post November 29, 1903 (obituary section)〕 Minnie's mother was stage actress Sarah Crocker Conway. Minnie Conway was a direct descendant of William Augustus Conway, a British Shakespearian actor who became popular in America during the 1820s. Her father, the proprietor of the Brooklyn Theatre, was said to have organized the first stock company in America. After Tearle’s parents divorced, his mother married Osmond Tearle (1852-1901), a British Shakespearian actor popular in “the provinces”. Two half brothers Godfrey and Malcolm Tearle were born from Marianne's marriage to Osmond Tearle.〔Conway Tearle Dies in Hollywood Age 60 - The Hartford, Courant - 3 Oct 1938 (obituaries)〕〔The Scrap Book: Volume 4, Part 1 1907 - Page 276〕
Conway Levy was educated in England and America and took to the stage at an early age. By the age of ten he could recite twelve Shakespearean plays from memory. As an adult he adopted his step-father's surname to become Conway Tearle. His big break came at the age of twenty-one when in Manchester, England, without any preparation, he was called upon to play Hamlet after the lead actor took ill just prior to the first act.〔The Story Of Conway Tearle - New York Times February 27, 1916; pg.
