Canadian character actor, singer, and playwright. He also wrote the lyrics to a number of popular songs (July 18, 1891 – March 31, 1957). Born in London, Ontario, Lockhart made his professional debut at the age of six when he appeared with The Kilties Band of Canada. At the age of 15, he was appearing in sketches with actress Beatrice Lillie. He made his Broadway debut in 1916, in the musical The Riviera Girl. He was a member of the travelling play The Pierrot Players (for which he wrote the book and lyrics). This play introduced the song, "The World Is Waiting for the Sunrise," for which Lockhart wrote the lyrics along with Canadian composer Ernest Seitz. Lockhart is mostly remembered for his film work. His film debut was in 1922, and he continued making films until his death in 1957. Lockhart died from a coronary thrombosis at the age of 65 in Santa Monica, California. He has two stars on the Hollywood Walk of Fame at 6307 Hollywood Boulevard, one for motion pictures and one for television.
