Biography
April 5, 1889, Ottawa’s winter air still clinging to the riverbanks, welcomed Ben Taggart into the world. By the flicker of nickelodeon lamps and the roar of twenties soundstages, he carved a career that spanned silents to serials—swaggering through 1942’s Pacific skies in *Don Winslow of the Navy*, braving the Arctic mystique of *She* in 1917, and pacing death-row shadows in *Before I Hang* (1940). Three decades of greasepaint later, Santa Monica’s sunset claimed him on May 17, 1947.
