James Neil Hamilton Bio/Wiki, Net Worth, Married 2018

Neil Hamilton's show business career began when he secured a job as a shirt model in magazine ads. He became interested in acting and joined several stock companies. He got his first film role in 1918, but received his big break from D.W. Griffith in The White Rose (1923). After performing in several more Griffith films, Hamilton was signed by ...

#Fact
1Prior to becoming a film star, he was used as the model for the Arrow Collar man by artists Joseph Leyendecker on the back page cover of the "Saturday Evening Post." He also modeled for such other noted illustrators as James Montgomery Flagg, Arthur William Brown, Norman Rockwell, Charles Dana Gibson, and more.
2When he was six, Hamilton's right arm was badly shattered and there was little hope at the time that the wound would knit. His mother had been crippled years before in a streetcar accident and his eventual recovery was attributed to great religious faith by the family.
3Strikingly handsome in his youth, Hamilton--along with John Barrymore, Fredric March and Brian Donlevy--modeled as the Arrow (Shirt) Collar Man, and received more fan mail in the 1920s than box-office king Rudolph Valentino.
4Was the only member of the supporting cast of Batman (1966) to be in every single episode of the series.
5He made 268 films, both sound and silent, and played opposite such stars as Joan Crawford, Norma Shearer, Constance Bennett, Ann Sothern and Jean Arthur.
6Appeared on the Thanksgiving Day cover of the Saturday Evening Post in 1918, marching beside (and hungrily eyeing) a turkey.
7Is the only actor to play Commissioner Gordon from the "Batman" franchise who shared the character's first name, James. Like both of his live-action successors (Martin Patterson Hingle [Pat Hingle] and Leonard Gary Oldman [Gary Oldman]), he goes by his middle name.
8Distant cousin of Margaret Hamilton.
9By the mid-1940s, his personal and professional life were at such a low point that he was seriously considering committing suicide. His plan was to jump from the mountains above Santa Monica, but on his walk he met a priest and told him the whole story. The priest encouraged him to make a novena, instead. At the end of the nine days of prayer, he was offered an acting job from Universal Studios and never looked back.
10Raised in a devoutly Roman Catholic household.
11An only child.
12In Since You Went Away (1944) he appears only in a photograph. All of his scenes were edited out and left on the cutting room floor before final release.
