Lincoln Stedman

May 18, 1901 - Mar 22, 1948 (46 years old) in Denver, Colorado, USA

Lincoln Stedman was an American screen actor, in films from 1917 to 1934. Although his marriage and death records indicate he was born in 1906, the 1910, 1920, 1930, and 1940 Federal censuses make clear that he actually was born in 1901.

Lincoln was an American silent film actor. He appeared in 81 films between 1917 and 1934. A large fat man, Stedman had a career in films dating back to his boyhood in silent films with his parents. Overweight as a teenager Stedman resembled Roscoe Arbuckle which allowed him to convincingly play adult roles far beyond his years in real life.

He was born in Denver, Colorado and died in Los Angeles, California. He was the son of Marshall Stedman and silent film beauty Myrtle Stedman. He was married to Carol Rohe Stedman. One month before his death of a heart-ailment, his daughter Loretta Myrtle Stedman was born. Lincoln Stedman was buried at the Holy Cross Cemetery in Los Angeles.
