MINI BIO:
Willis Bouchey was a solidly built, ambivalent-looking American supporting player with greying brown hair. He left the security of a Broadway career to try his luck in Hollywood of the early 1950s (1952, Million Dollar Mermaid; 1953, From Here to Eternity; 1954, Suddenly). He stayed in steady employment there for the remainder of his career often in western films as a banker, aging sheriff, judge or town big-shot. He was sometimes billed as Willis B. Bouchey.
