Victor Kilian Overview:
Character actor, Victor Kilian, was born Victor Arthur Kilian on Mar 6, 1891 in Jersey City, NJ. Kilian died at the age of 88 on Mar 11, 1979 in Los Angeles, CA .
MINI BIO:
Brown-haired, sometimes bearded American actor who looked perfect casting for Abraham Lincoln, and finally did get to play the role in 1940's Virginia City. Not too dissimilar to John Dierkes, he was often cast as woodsmen, prospectors, sheriffs, and fire-breathing preachers until he became a victim of the McCarthy blacklist. At 85, he began a whole new career as the "flashing" grandfather in the TV comedy show Mary Hartman, Mary Hartman but, sadly, three years later he was killed by burglars at his Hollywood apartment.
