Huntley Gordon (October 8, 1887 - December 7,
1956) was an actor born in Montreal, Quebec.

==Profile==
Gordon served in the Canadian army during World
War I and began a career in motion pictures in
England where he had been stationed during the
war. With his suave manner and classic good looks
he was sought out in Hollywood, California where
he acted in both silent and talking films.

In Hollywood, he appeared in numerous films
including starring opposite Gloria Swanson in the
1923 film "Bluebeard's Eighth Wife." That same
year he starred in "The Wanters" with Norma
Shearer and Marie Prevost.

For most of his career, Gordon traveled between
America and Britain, making films in both
countries, appearing in more than 120 films. He
was with MGM studios when he retired from film in
1940 and invested in the manufacture of silk
stockings, a lucrative business at a time when
Canadian and British women could not get them due
to the rationing brought on by the Second World
War. Although he no longer made motion pictures,
Huntley Gordon remained active in the world of
network radio. 

Huntley Gordon died in Van Nuys, California and
was interred in the Forest Lawn Memorial Park
Cemetery in Glendale, California.
