Robert Williams (actor)
Robert Williams (September 15, 1894 – November 3, 1931) was an American stage and film actor. He is best known for his first, and only, leading role in the 1931 romantic comedy ''Platinum Blonde'', opposite Loretta Young and Jean Harlow. Williams died of peritonitis three days after the film's premiere.
==Career==
Born in Morganton, North Carolina in 1894 (some sources state 1897 or 1899), Williams ran away from home at the age 11 to join a tent show. He later worked on showboats in Mississippi before making his way to New York. After appearing in several stage productions, Williams landed a role in ''Eyes of Youth'', starring Marjorie Rambeau. The role boosted his career and gained him notice. He put his career on hold to join the United States Army where he served in 166th Infantry Regiment during World War I. After the war, Williams returned to the United States and resumed his acting career. In 1922, he made his Broadway stage debut in the popular stage comedy ''Abie's Irish Rose''. He also appeared in productions of ''That French Lady'', ''Scarlet Pages'', and ''Love, Honor and Betray''.
After appearing as "Johnnie Coles" in the play ''Rebound'' in 1930, Williams was chosen by director Edward H. Griffith to reprise the role in the 1931 film version. He received favorable reviews for his work in the film and followed with a supporting role in ''Devotion'', which was also released in 1931.〔 Later that same year, Williams was cast in his first and only leading role in the romantic comedy film ''Platinum Blonde'', starring Loretta Young and Jean Harlow. It was his final onscreen appearance.
