Jeff Chandler

Jeff Chandler

Highest Rated: 91% Broken Arrow (1950)

Lowest Rated: 43% Sign of the Pagan (1954)

Birthday: Dec 15, 1918

Birthplace: Brooklyn, New York, USA

Tough, virile lead with prematurely steel grey, wavy hair and a muscular physique who starred in action films of the late 1940s and 50s, often as American Indians (three times as Cochise), gangsters, cavalrymen and "natives." Not a docile star, Chandler rebelled against Universal's mediocre action projects and was suspended several times. Chandler's career was cut short by his premature death--due to blood poisoning after routine spinal surgery for a slipped disc--at age 42.
