Actor Born: 1888 in Riga, Latvia Death: November 21, 1940 in London, UK Biography:A sort of silent era "Tor Johnson", hulking (reportedly 6'4"), Latvian-born "Ivan Linow" parlayed his experiences as a champion wrestler into a lucrative screen career, providing menace -- or in some cases, Scandinavian comedy bits -- to a host of action-melodramas between 1921 and 1935. Among Linow's more memorable assignments were the Russian immigrant in "In Old Arizona" (1929) and the Bolshevik Sanovich in "The Cock-Eyed World" (1929). He died of a heart attack in London in 1940. ~ Hans J. Wollstein, All Movie Guide
