Patric Knowles
From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
Patric Knowles (November 11, 1911 – December 23, 1995) was an English-born film actor who appeared in films of the 1930s through the 1970s. He made his film debut in 1933 and throughout his career he either played film leads or second leads in movies. In the 1940's, he was known for playing the hero in a number of horror films including The Wolf Man (1941) and Frankenstein Meets the Wolfman (1943). Knowles was a freelance film actor from 1946 until his retirement in 1976.
The English actor was also cast in Errol Flynn movies playing strait-laced characters to Flynn's flamboyant ones, and as comic foils in a number of comedies such as Abbott and Costello's Who Done It? (1942) and Hit the Ice (1943). He also appeared opposite Jack Kelly in a 1957 episode of the television series Maverick (TV series) called "The Wrecker", which was based upon a Robert Louis Stevenson adventure and also featured James Garner.
