- Actor
James A. Furey was a 19th century musical comedy singer and stage
manager at the famous New York Casino on Broadway. He played the
Marquis in the Casino's original production of "Erminie". He also sang
in all of the Gilbert and Sullivan operas produced there. When
advancing years robbed him of his singing voice, he turned to the
movies. In his short six-year movie career he acted with such silent
movie greats as Theda Bara, Norma Talmadge and Ethel Barrymore.
