Truex, Ernest (1889–1973), character actor. The small, raspy‐voiced performer, whose stage career spanned over seventy years, was born in Rich Hill, Missouri, where he made his first appearance as a child prodigy in 1894. He played many years in stock before his New York debut in 1908. Truex's small stature and youthful looks were responsible for his being cast in young‐boy roles even when he was in his twenties. Among his notable performances were Charles MacLance in
A Good Little Devil (1913), the boy detective Barney Cook in
The Dummy (1914), the hen‐pecked Eddie in the musical
Very Good Eddie (1915), the pressured husband Gilbert Sterling in
Six‐Cylinder Love (1921), the duped Johnny Quinlan in
The Fall Guy (1925), Kinesias in a 1930 revival of
Lysistrata, the mystery writer Wallace Porter in
Whistling in the Dark (1932), and the hapless home‐builder Newton Fuller in
George Washington Slept Here (1940). Although Truex continued acting for another quarter‐century, including roles with the
American Repertory Theatre in 1946, he never again was in a long‐run success.
