Arriving in America from his native Australia at the turn of the century,
Frank S. Hagney eked out a living in vaudeville. He entered films during the silent era as a stunt man, gradually working his way up to featured roles. While most of Hagney's film work is forgettable, he had the honor of contributing to a bonafide classic in 1946. Director
Frank Capra hand-picked
Frank S. Hagney to portray the faithful bodyguard of wheelchair-bound villain
