Biography
On 10 September 1882, Sandwich, Illinois, welcomed the birth of Paul Harvey, a performer whose quiet authority would course through more than two hundred screen stories. Audiences remember his polished charm opposite Hedy Lamarr in *Algiers* (1938), his cool precision as a suspicious asylum director in Hitchcock’s *Spellbound* (1945), and his wink-of-the-eye warmth as Calamity Jane’s cautious suitor in the 1953 musical. Off-camera, two marriages—first to actress Ottye Henrietta Cramer, later to Merle Stanton—framed a life spent shuttling between Broadway boards and back-lot soundstages. The journey ended on 15 December 1955 in Los Angeles, but the crisp cadence of his screen presence still flickers in classic-film marquees.
