Henry Silva Overview:
Character actor, Henry Silva, was born on Sep 15, 1928 in Brooklyn, NY. As of December 2023, Henry Silva was 95 years old.
MINI BIO:
Dark-haired American actor (of Puerto Rican parentage) who often plays emotionless killers. If you saw Silva coming down a street towards you, the odds are that you would cross to the other side. An attempt to install him in leading roles in the early sixties was not successful and, although he has continued with bad guys, they have often been too silly for him to make an impact. Much in Italy from the mid-sixties, he later made many obscure action films of the "straight to video" variety.

Henry Silva Quotes:
Chink:
I had me a quiet woman once. Outside she was as calm as Sunday. But inside, wild as mountain scenery.
Peggy Carter: Your father was a preacher?
Rennie: Kind of a phony evangelist. I tell ya, he was about the meanest man I've ever met in my life. He just naturally liked to beat up on anything that was smaller than him. And of course, he could always say he was beating the fear of God into ya.
Peggy Carter: Well, where is he now?
Rennie: Well, I, ah, well I hope I know where he is. He was the first man I ever killed.
