Bill Kerr Biography
Born: 1922
Born in South Africa, Bill Kerr gained fame as a child actor in Australian music halls and variety theatres. Billed as Willie Kerr, he made his cinematic bow in 1933's Harmony Row. His long-overdue British stage debut occurred in 1947, after which Kerr kept busy in musical comedies and stand-up comic gigs. He spent several years on the radio and TV endeavors of comedian Tony Hancock, and also worked extensively with actor/writer/director Spike_Milligan. He has matured into a useful character actor in both comedy films (A Funny Thing Happened on the Way to the Forum) and more sober endeavors (Year of Living Dangerously). Bill Kerr's TV series stints have included Citizen_James (1960) and The New Adventures of Black Beauty (1990). Hal Erickson, Rovi
