Early yearsBorn Francis Fenton Moran,[1] the Georgetown University graduate lettered as a tackle on the school's football team. He also was active in Georgetown's undergraduate dramatic club, for which he directed and wrote plays.[2] CareerFenton started his career on stage in New York, acting on Broadway in An American Tragedy (1926) billed as Frank Moran.[3] As Frank Fenton, he starred in the Broadway versions of Susan and God with Gertrude Lawrence and as George Kittredge in The Philadelphia Story (1939) alongside Katharine Hepburn. His other Broadway credits include Stork Mad, O Evening Star, Dead End, and The O'Flynn.[4] He also appeared on stage in London, and toured with Katherine Cornell in Romeo & Juliet and other plays. Fenton's film debut came in The Navy Comes Through (1942).[5] After moving to Hollywood for Barbara Stanwyck's Lady of Burlesque (1943),[6] the Hartford, Connecticut native[7] appeared in more than 80 movies and television programs. Although the majority of his motion picture career was spent in supporting roles, he starred alongside John Carradine in Isle of Forgotten Sins (1943), which was re-issued as Monsoon. Fenton was married from 1934-1948[8] to the former Aqueena Bilotti, daughter of sculptor Salvadore Bilotti. The couple had two daughters, Alicia and Honoree.[9][10] They divorced in 1948.[12] He is often confused—in print and online—with screenwriter and novelist Frank Fenton (1903 - August 23, 1971). The actor dropped his last name early in his career to avoid confusion with other well-known Morans in New York City, including prizefighter Frank Moran, drama reporter Frank Moran, and George Moran of the popular comedy team Moran and Mack.[1] DeathFenton died at UCLA Medical Center on July 24, 1957, at age 51.[11][12] He is buried in Holy Cross Cemetery in Culver City, California.[13] Partial filmography{{Div col}}
