Bobby Ray

Bobby Ray was an American film comedian of the silent era. He appeared in more than sixty short films between 1914 and 1927, including a group from the mid-1920s featuring Oliver Hardy. He was originally a child actor. In addition he directed six short films and two feature films Riley of the Rainbow Division and Dugan of the Dugouts. Following the arrival of sound, Ray developed a new career as an assistant director that continued into the 1950s. Much of his work during this period was for the low-budget studio Monogram Pictures, but he later moved into television.
