J. Barney Sherry — Motography’s Gallery of Picture Players (1914) 🇺🇸

“Barney” Sherry, as the leading man in Kay Bee and Broncho films is known among his intimate friends, is a recruit from the legitimate stage.

Not a young one in years of experience, for Mr. Sherry has toured this country from coast to coast with various companies and has been seen in important character and leading parts in many Broadway successes, besides having appeared in the principal houses of Europe.

A handsome, well-built man, he makes a striking figure in pictures which, combined with his artistic ability, make him an actor from whom excellent work can be expected whether the character be that of a polished gentleman or disreputable-looking tramp.

He has a striking personality and his versatility in portrayal seems unlimited. Most of Mr. Sherry’s leisure time is spent in his spacious library.
