Colman, Ronald (Charles)
born Feb. 9, 1891, Richmond, Surrey, Eng.
died May 19, 1958, Santa Barbara, Calif., U.S.

British-U.S. film actor.

He began a stage and film career in England then moved in 1920 to the U.S., where he first won notice in The White Sister (1923). A romantic leading man, he appeared in other silent films such as Beau Geste (1926), and he easily made the transition to sound movies with his cultivated, expressive voice. His most notable films include Arrowsmith (1931), A Tale of Two Cities (1935), Lost Horizon (1937), If I Were King (1938), Random Harvest (1942), and A Double Life (1947, Academy Award).
