A dignified-looking character actor from England, Harold Entwistle directed an early version of the popular Mrs. Wiggs of the Cabbage Patch (1914) starring Beatriz Michelena. A character actor thereafter, Entwistle often played kind characters -- ministers, doctors, butlers, and the like. Today, however, he is perhaps best remembered as the real-life uncle of ill-fated starlet Peg Entwistle who, while residing with him in Hollywood's Beachwood Canyon, jumped to her death from the letter "H" in the nearby "Hollywoodland" sign.
