biography
Handsome American silent-screen comic Harry Depp starred for producer Al Christie in two-reel situation comedies such as Girl in the Box (1918) and 'Twas Henry's Fault (1919), both opposite pretty Elinor Field. He later showed a talent for female impersonation in several Universal comedies of the 1920s and continued to play bit parts through the late 1940s. In the talkie era, however, Depp was better known as an artists' representative.
