About this actor
Wardell Edwin Bond (April 9, 1903 – November 5, 1960) was an American film actor whose rugged appearance and easygoing charm featured in numerous roles. Bond was born in Benkelman, Nebraska – located in the southwestern corner of Nebraska just a few miles from Kansas and Colorado. The Bond family – father John W., mother Mabel L., and sister Bernice – lived in Benkelman until 1919 when they moved to Denver. He graduated from East High School in Denver. Bond attended the University of Southern California and played football on the same team as John Wayne, who would become a lifelong friend and colleague. Bond was a starting lineman on USC's first national championship team in 1928. Wayne and Bond, along with several other football players, were recruited to play football players in a film about the United States Naval Academy. Bond made his screen debut in 1929 in John Ford's Salute, and thereafter played over 200 supporting roles, never playing the lead in a single theatrical release...
