Francis X. Bushman Bio/Wiki, Net Worth, Married 2018

Francis Xavier Bushman (January 10, 1883 – August 23, 1966) was an American actor, film director, and screenwriter. His matinee idol career started in 1911 in the silent film His Friend's Wife, but it did not survive the silent screen era.Bushman, like many of his contemporaries, moved into the films from the stage. He was performing at Broncho Billy Anderson's Essanay Studios in Chicago, Illinois, when he was noticed for his muscular, sculpted torso. Bushman appeared in nearly 200 feature film roles—more than 175 films before 1920, and 17 in his screen debut year of 1911 alone. He also worked for the Vitagraph studio before signing with Metro in 1915.

#Fact
1Famous for his screen partnership with Beverly Bayne. Francis X. Bushman's first marriage had been kept a secret because studio heads felt that moviegoers could not become as excited about a married man. When Bushman decided to marry Bayne, his fans learned about his earlier marriage, which cost him his popularity.
2Entered films in 1911 after winning a 'most handsome man' competition.
3Bushman's first appearance before an audience was as an altar boy for Cardinal Gibbons.
4From 1914 to 1917 Bushman was America's most popular leading man, but his 1918 divorce revealed to his bevy of female fans that he was not the eligible bachelor they thought but a married man with five children.
5Father-in-law of director Jack Conway.
6Father of Disney art director Bruce Bushman.
7Bushman modeled for the statue of Nathan Hale at Harvard and the statue of Lord Baltimore in Baltimore.
8In July 1912 while Bushman was filming in Wisconsin he was challenged by a local lumberjack to a wrestling match. Bushman won the hour-long impromptu bout and made the most of the resultant positive publicity.
9Angry that Bushman had left the studio for Quality Films, Essanay advertised the actor's last film without mentioning his name.
10Always accompanied by five Great Danes - amazingly, he had another 295 living on his 280-acre Maryland estate.
11Drove around Hollywood in a Marmon limousine which had his name embossed on its sides.
12When appearing on the "You Bet Your Life" radio show on February 3, 1958, he stated to Groucho Marx that during his career, that he had received over 17,000 marriage proposals from amorous female fans.
13At 5 foot 11, he was often shorter than his 6 foot co-stars and even some of his leading ladies. In many of his early films, he stood on a box to make him taller in close-ups.
14Although the nickname "King of the Movies" was eventually given to Clark Gable, it is engraved on Bushman's headstone in Los Angeles.
15He donated land to Sid Grauman, on which now sits Mann's (formerly Grauman's) Chinese Theatre in Hollywood, California.
16Was the first film actor to be called "King of the Movies." That label would, in later decades, be affixed to Clark Gable, where it still remains.
17Grandfather of actor Pat Conway and Barbara Bushman.
18Father with Beverly Bayne of Richard Stansbury Bushman, who later changed his name to Bayne, and killed himself in 1957.
19Father with Josephine Fladune of art director Bruce Bushman, Virginia Bushman, Lenore Bushman, Josephine, and actor Francis X. Bushman Jr..
20Entered films with Essanay Studios.
21Died after a fall.
