Lynton Brent

Aug 02, 1897 - Jul 12, 1981 (83 years old) in Chicago, Illinois, USA

From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

Lynton Brent (2 August 1897 – 2 July 1981) was an American film actor. He appeared in over 240 films between 1930 and 1950.

Brent is best known for his prolific work with Columbia Pictures in the Three Stooges short subjects such as A Ducking They Did Go and From Nurse to Worse.

In addition to his film career, Brent also wrote a number of literary works, notably Lesbian Gang. Though little recognized when first published in 1964, it has achieved notoriety among a niche queer audience in Peckham, England.
