Harry von Meter — Motography’s Gallery of Picture Players (1913) 🇺🇸

Harry von Meter has been in the films for a long, long time, and during that wide and varied experience has played roles of every variety and kind, for his specialty is “characters” and one knows the infinite sort of parts that are sure to fall to a “character man” in a picture company, which produces several plays a week the year round, but Von Meter has always “made good” and is still doing so.

Those who saw American’s two-reel drama entitled “American Born” will recall with pleasure the character role which Harry created in that production, though the instance cited is only one of many which might be mentioned, for Von Meter is devoted to his art and every part he interprets is lifelike and natural.

Before joining the American stock company at Santa Barbara, California, Harry drew his salary check from the Universal and before that was on the legitimate stage.
