biography

Famed horror great Lon Chaney Jr. was born Creighton Chaney in February 1906 in Oklahoma. At that time his father, future silent screen star Lon Chaney, was a poor vaudevillian who had taken his family on the road. By the time young Creighton was ten years old, his parents' marriage had dissolved, but Lon Chaney's film career had begun, and the family's fortune took a turn for the better. Discouraged by his father in looking to acting as a profession, Creighton Chaney took on a succession of menial jobs until his marriage to wife Dorothy in 1926; the couple eventually had two sons, born in 1928 and 1930. With a family to support, Creighton Chaney went to work for his father-in-law's company. It wasn't until after his father's death in 1930 that Creighton Chaney considered taking up acting. His father's name helped him get his foot in the door, and in the early 1930s he was given small roles in films. An early starring role for Chaney came in the 1932 RKO serial The Last Frontier, but his career lacked real momentum until he agreed to change his name to Lon Chaney Jr. in the mid 1930s. (Later in his career, he dropped the "Junior" designation and was billed as "Lon Chaney.") After ten years, his marriage to Dorothy fell apart, and Chaney married second wife Patsy in 1937.

Although Chaney appeared in more than 60 films between 1932 and 1939, his career lacked direction until he was cast as Lennie Small in the 1939 film Of Mice and Men, in which he delivered the strongest performance of his career. Finally a star in his own right, in 1941 he signed a contract with Universal to do a string of mostly horror films, including The Wolf Man, for which he is best remembered today. During his tenure at Universal, Chaney portrayed the Wolf Man, Dracula, the Mummy, and even Frankenstein, a feat no other actor can boast. However, Chaney also did a number of westerns, and he also proved to be excellent in comedies and dramas.

later years

By the end of the 1940s, Universal had milked its monsters for all they were worth, and the genre faded. Chaney left Universal to freelance and did quite well, working in numerous films throughout the 1950s and 1960s, often of a low-budget nature. Many of Chaney's low-rent horror flicks are now cult classics, including Indestructible Man (1956; with Max Showalter, aka Casey Adams), The Alligator People (1959; with Beverly Garland), Spider Baby (1964; with Carol Ohmart), Hillbillys in a Haunted House (1967; with Joi Lansing), and Dracula Vs. Frankenstein (1971; with Anthony Eisley and Regina Carrol).

By the 1960s, years of alcoholism had taken its toll on Chaney's health and career, and in addition Chaney was suffering from a myraid of health problems. His final role came in Al Adamson's cult classic Dracula Vs. Frankenstein. Chaney passed away on July 12, 1973, at the age of 67.
