MIINI BIO:
Miles Mander was a stocky, British actor-manager with military bark, plus the mustache and bearing to match. He entered films after World War I (he was an aviator), often playing mustache-twirling villains, appropriately billed as Luther Miles. He became a jack of all trades in the 1920s -- acting, writing, producing and directing. Mander went to Hollywood in 1935 and was heavily in demand for foxy character parts, mostly in second-feature thrillers. He died at age 57 from a heart attack.
