Biography

William Burress, a talented actor of great renown, entered this world on a warm summer day, August 19, 1867, in the charming town of Newcomerstown, Ohio, United States of America.

As he grew and flourished, he would go on to make a lasting impact on the world of entertainment, leaving behind a legacy of iconic performances that would be remembered for generations to come. Some of his most notable roles include the esteemed portrayal of a certain dashing hero in the 1917 film adaptation of "The Scarlet Pimpernel", as well as his memorable appearances in "The World Changes" (1933) and "Kultur" (1918).

But Burress' life was not solely defined by his craft, for he was also a devoted partner to the lovely Carrie May O'Brien, whom he lovingly wed. Together, they shared a bond that would endure through the ups and downs of life, and their love would be a constant source of strength and inspiration for him.

Tragically, William Burress' time on this earth came to a close on October 30, 1948, in the vibrant city of Los Angeles, California, United States of America. Despite his passing, his memory lives on, a testament to the enduring power of his art and the impact he had on those who knew him.
