Biography
Newport, Rhode Island greeted William H. West on 26 July 1860, and from that seaside cradle he stepped onto stages and screens that flickered with the birth of cinema. Audiences first felt his pull in the 1911 frontier whirlwind *On the Warpath*, later discovered his cunning in 1914’s *The Fatal Opal*, and finally checked into the suspense of 1915’s *Mysteries of the Grand Hotel*. Off-camera he shared life with Roumelia G. Morris, his steadfast partner. Fate’s final reel rolled on 20 August 1915 in Glendale, California, closing the curtain on a career that helped shape silent-era storytelling.
