Biography
[ "Before cementing his legacy in early cinema, Alan Roscoe—born in Nashville in 1886 according to Census records—spent his early years as a schoolteacher. Trading the classroom for the theatrical stage, he eventually caught the attention of William Fox, leading to a prolific film career under both the Fox and Samuel Goldwyn banners. He is most celebrated for his dynamic screen chemistry with the legendary Theda Bara, serving as her primary leading man in at least seven different features. While he initially built his reputation under the name Albert Roscoe, he became more widely recognized as Alan during the latter stage of his career." ]
