OICK LE STRANGE. Born in Wiesbaden, Germany, December 25, 1882 First theatrical engagement was with Henry W. Savage Company in 1900, after which he engaged in several vaudeville and dramatic sketches, and was for a year and a half playing characters and heavies with the Madison Stock Company of Madison, Wis. Mr. Le Strange was the first signed stock member of the Lasky Company upon their arrival in California, and has been with them ever since. He will best be remembered as playing Grouchy in "The Squaw Man," Thompson in "The Only Son," the Ghost in "The Ghost Breakers," etc. Mr. Le Strange belongs to the German nobility, and although he is at present experiencing all the hard knocks in the picture game which go with fights, runaways, falls, etc., as often seen on the screen, yet at the demise of his father he will become, instead of plain "Dick" Le Strange, as we know him now, Count Strench L'Estrange de Blackmere and Duke of Shrewsbury.
