Timeline
Langdon first performed when he ran away from home at the age of 12-13 to join a travelling medicine show. In 1903 he scored a lasting success in vaudeville with an act called "Johnny's New Car" which he performed for twenty years.
In 1904 Langdom met and married Rose Musolft, and the pair began a vaudeville routine By 1915 they had evolved their routine into a popular skit called "Johnny's New Car." According to Langdon's nephew, also named Harry Langdon, in an April 1992 article in "Films in Review," the act was still going strong in 1922, when Principal Pictures decided to film it as "Harry's New Car." Producer Mack Sennett was so impressed with Langdon that he assigned Harry Edwards and Frank Caprra to create material for him. Despite the claim that the vaudeville act was filmed by Principal, it doesn't appear in Langdon's IMDb filmography, which lists the 1924 Sennett short "Picking Peaches" as his first film appearance. Other sources list a 1923 short entitled "The Sky Scraper" (aka "The Greenhorn") made presumably for Principal as his film debut.
His first marriage reportedly produced one child who died at birth, around 1911. Harry never told his later wife and son about this tragedy.
In his first film in 1923 he was a detective following a man's wife. In his second, 'Smile Please' he was a photographer.
Made his debut in movies at the age of 40, joining Mack Sennett Studios in 1924 and starred in several short comedies that quickly became very popular.
By 1926 he was making features such as 'Boobs in the Wood' and 'Marriage Vow'.
MGM announced on May 31, 1929 that Harry Langdon had been signed for five years, to make eight two-reel comedy shorts per year. He eventually made only eight shorts at Hal Roach Studios (released through MGM) for the 1929-30 season.
Harry Langdon wrote two songs in 1932: "Calling All Cars" and "Lulu".
Originally signed for role of "Sparks" in the Mascot serial The Whispering Shadow (1933). Replaced in the role by Karl Dane.
Was an avid cartoonist; he drew the caricatures in the opening credits of Stan Laurel and Oliver Hardy's feature Block-Heads (1938), a film which he also co-wrote.
Briefly, producer Hal Roach made an attempt to team up Harry Langdon with Oliver Hardy. The result of this, was one film released in 1939. Ultimately, the attempt failed.
An April, 1992 career article in Films in Review" on his uncle was written by Langdon's nephew also named Harry Langdon, not to be confused with Langdon's son, who also bore the name.
