Robert F. Kortman (December 24, 1887 – March 13, 1967) was an American film actor mostly associated with westerns, though he also appeared in a number of Laurel and Hardy comedies. He appeared in more than 260 films between 1914 and 1952.

Biography

The son of a rancher, Kortman was born in Brackettville, Texas, in 1887. He spent six years in the U.S. cavalry.[1]

Director Tom Ince cast Kortman as a villain when he began working in films in 1911,[2] and he went on to become the "favored on-screen opponent" for William S. Hart with regard to their film fights.[3]

After he left acting, Kortman was president of a cooperative water company in Arrowhead Springs, California, where he lived.[4]

Kortman was married to Gonda Durand, a Mack Sennett bathing beauty.[4] He died in Long Beach, California from cancer.[citation needed]
