Biography
{ "rewritten_biography": "A native of Pittsburgh, Pennsylvania, James Gordon arrived on April 23, 1871, eventually rising to prominence as a dual threat in the burgeoning film industry. Whether directing from the chair or commanding the screen as an actor, he left an indelible mark on cinematic history through his work in the 1920 adaptation of The Last of the Mohicans, the maritime drama Hearts of Oak (1924), and the frontier epic Tumbleweeds (1925). His private life saw him wed to Rita and later to Mabel Van Buren. After a lifetime dedicated to the craft, Gordon passed away in the heart of the movie world, Hollywood, California, on May 12, 1941." }
