Frederick Kerr (born Frederick Grinham Keen, 11 October 1858 – 3 May 1933) was an English actor who appeared on stage in both London and New York and in British and American films; he also worked as a major theatrical manager in London. ==Early life== Frederick Kerr was born Frederick Grinham Keen was born on 11 October 1858, in London. As a youth just out of Cambridge, he went to New York City around 1880 and worked as a sketch artist, when sheer chance turned him into an actor. He was living in a boarding house on 7th Avenue, where a number of theatrical people also lived (among them Henry Miller, who eventually became his manager). Osmond Tearle, an actor living there, heard from his own producer that an Englishman was needed for a production of ''The School for Scandal''. Tearle recruited Frederick, who got the part in January 1882 (which is also likely the moment he took the stage surname of Kerr). Kerr appeared in several more plays in New York City that year, but left for Britain to appear in a London play in December 1882. Over the next fifty years, he travelled back and forth across the Atlantic several times for theatrical work both in New York City and in London.〔"FRED—THE KERRS—GEOFFREY" New York Times Drama/Music/Fashion/Screen, November 7, 1920, page 88 (available online at the (New York Times archive )〕
