Biography
A Pancras boy born on the last day of January 1880, Wallace Bosco first tasted London fog, then footlights. Between silents and early television he shaped words and roles, scripting and acting his way through 1913’s swashbuckling Ivanhoe, later trading punches with tigers in Jungle Jim (1955) and chasing spies in Captain Midnight (1954). Ninety-three springs later, on 17 April 1973, the curtain fell for good in Richmond upon Thames, Surrey.
