James O'Neill (actor)
James O'Neill (November 15, 1847 - August 10, 1920) was an Irish-American theatre actor and the father of the American playwright Eugene O'Neill.
==Early life==
James O'Neill was born on October 14, 1846 in County Kilkenny, Ireland. His parents were distant cousins, Edward〔 and Mary O'Neill. His father was a farmer. The family emigrated to America and settled in Buffalo, New York. In 1857 they moved to Cincinnati, Ohio where James was apprenticed to a machinist.〔("James O'Neill", ''History of the San Francisco Theatre'' Vol. XX, WPA, Northern California, 1942 )〕 His father Edward abandoned them to return to Ireland, where he soon died.
James O'Neill's brother-in-law offered him a job in his business selling military uniforms during the Civil War. He also paid for a tutor for James. Later, O'Neill tried to establish several small businesses, all of which failed.〔("Eugene O'Neill", ''American Experience'', PBS )〕 James O'Neill, in his son's view, was a man crippled by the fear of the poorhouse that had been implanted in childhood by the Irish famine.〔(Gelb, Arthur and Gelb, Barbara. ''O'Neill: Life With Monte Cristo'' New York Times Books )〕
