Born on Christmas Day, December 25, 1899, in the charming town of Marianna, Arkansas, USA, Oscar Polk would go on to make a lasting impact on the world of acting.
As a talented thespian, Polk was fortunate enough to have appeared in a number of notable films throughout his career, including the iconic epic romance Gone with the Wind, released in 1939, as well as the critically acclaimed drama The Green Pastures, which premiered in 1936, and the swashbuckling adventure Reap the Wild Wind, released in 1942.
In his personal life, Polk was married to the lovely Ivy V. Polk, with whom he shared a deep and abiding love.
Tragically, Polk's life was cut short when he passed away on January 4, 1949, in the bustling metropolis of New York City, New York, USA, leaving behind a legacy that would continue to inspire and entertain generations to come.
