Tall, burly star of the silent screen. Began on stage and started acting in films from 1911, under contract first with Imp, then Universal. Became extremely popular in heroic (Ivanhoe (1913)) or evil (Dr. Jekyll and Mr. Hyde (1913)) characterizations. Loved performing heavily disguised, playing all ten roles in Shadows (1914), including that of an old Chinese. Branched out into directing between 1914-28, subsequently returning to acting after the advent of sound as a character player, albeit almost exclusively in bit parts.

His wife was born in Boston on August 28, 1889. His son, King Robert Baggot, was born on July 11, 1914.
