John Harron height - How tall is John Harron?

Met actress Betty Westmore during the filming of The Man in Hobbles (1928). They married in 1929. Betty abandoned her career for marriage and family. They had one child, Colleene, who was born on August 13, 1930.

Although he showed major promise starring or co-starring in such jazz-era mementos as The $5 Baby (1922), The Ragged Heiress (1922), Dulcy (1923), My Wife and I (1925), The Boy Friend (1926) and Silk Stockings (1927), he never managed to win the kind of fame brother Bobby received. By the arrival of sound, John had been relegated to bit and unbilled parts again in second-string films. Following location work on his last picture, John returned home unusually exhausted. He traveled to Seattle for a bit of fishing and rest and relaxation but, shortly after arriving, developed a raging headache and went into the hospital.

After all the tabloid hoopla of his brother's sudden and mysterious shooting death in 1920 (listed as "accidental" but some claim it might have been suicide), John was practically handed a movie career on a silver platter. Taking Bobby's place portraying young, innocent, wholesome romantic leads opposite silent screen's top femme stars, John literally coasted through hundreds of films.

John got his first taste of the movie business with an unbilled bit in one of his brother's many classic films, Hearts of the World (1918).

Actor John (Johnnie) Harron was born in New York City on March 31, 1903, a younger brother of silent screen star Robert Harron.
