Frederick Worlock (December 14, 1886 – August 1, 1973) was a British-American actor. He is known for his work in various films during the 1940s and 1950s, and as the voice of Horace in One Hundred and One Dalmatians (1961).




Career


On stage, he made his début in 1906 in Henry V in Bristol and acted in four productions in London before moving to the United States in the 1920s, where he appeared in Broadway productions between 1923 and 1954.

From 1938 to 1966, Worlock appeared as a supporting actor in films including Man Hunt, Dr. Jekyll and Mr. Hyde, How Green Was My Valley, The Imperfect Lady, Singapore, The Lone Wolf in London, Love from a Stranger, Ruthless, Joan of Arc, Spartacus, One Hundred and One Dalmatians (voice-over), and Spinout. He appeared in a number of the Sherlock Holmes films starring Basil Rathbone in the 1940s, also portraying Inspector Lestrade opposite Rathbone in The New Adventures of Sherlock Holmes. Worlock often portrayed "professorial roles, some benign, some villainous".




Personal life


In 1924, he married actress Elsie Ferguson, with whom he had appeared in The Moon-Flower on Broadway. The marriage ended in divorce in 1930.
Worlock died from cerebral ischemia in 1973, at the age of 86. He was buried in Valhalla Memorial Park Cemetery.
