Theodore Roberts — Who’s Who (1920) 🇺🇸

January 24, 2026

Theodore Roberts, before entering upon a dramatic career, was teaching in the public schools. He was born in San Francisco and on account of the illness of a performer in a traveling organization, was offered the opportunity to take his place. So well did he do and so much to his liking was the work, he continued from that day on, upon a career which has won for him thousands of friends.

He has appeared as Svengali in Trilby and in The Squaw Man with great success.

The lure of the screen was too great and finally he joined the Famous Players-Lasky forces and he has since developed into one of the very greatest of character delineators. He has been seen to great advantage in Everywoman, Male and Female, and other successes.
