David Powell (December 17, 1883 in Glasgow, Scotland – April

he appeared with Terry on Broadway in the first American presentation of Shaw's

Captain Brassbound's Conversion.

In 1912 Powell started his film career in one to three reel

shorts. At the beginning of the 1920s he starred in several Paramount-produced

English films. Extant films that feature Powell are The Dawn of A Tomorrow

(1916), Less Than Dust (1916), Idols of Clay (1920), The Virtuous Liar (1924),
