Biography: A top supporting actor in the silent era, handsome, mustachioed Frank Leigh usually played slightly decadent aristocrats: Lord Douglas in Mary Miles Minter's Nurse Marjorie (1920), evil plotter Count Marlaux in John Gilbert's Truxton King (1923), and the blackmailing Count Verensky in George Walsh's American Pluck. He also played the commandant in Mary Pickford's Rosita, one of the phony clairvoyants in Matt Moore's His Majesty, Bunker Bean (1925), and the evil Emir in Tom Mix's King Cowboy (1927). Leigh's roles got increasingly smaller in the sound era, when he was reduced to playing butlers and headwaiters.
