OTIS SKINNER REVIEWS 46 YEARS
OF ACTING IN AMERICAN THEATRES
I A? ihr- prrsrni day there is little
actor in which Connecticut has pride
,0! possession. according to the “21-
tcrhuty Republican. The Nutmeg
State bases its claim to Otis Skinner
on his rcsidonco in Hartford and it
embarked
on his carer-r as a professional actor.
Thrire is not half the quantity of ink
spent in relating the activities of
Otis Skinner that there is spent on
the doings of many inferior actors.
mainly lyncauso the sojourns of the
former along Broadway are {my and
brief. Otis Skinner belongs to that
minority of stage folk which num—

Mr. Skinner also tells his story with
delightful lightnesa and entertaining
focctinusnoss and the stock of mirth
provoking ancedocato is large.
