Actor Born: January 8, 1888 in County Meath, Ireland Death: January 21, 1960 in Hollywood, CA Biography:Irish-born "Matt Moore" was the youngest of Hollywood's acting Moore brothers. After siblings "Owen" and "Tom Moore" had established themselves, Moore gave movies a try in 1913, and was almost immediately cast as one of the leads in the notorious "Traffic in Souls" (1913). His appeal fell somewhere in-between his brothers: he didn't have the charisma of Owen, but he was a far better actor than Tom. By avoiding the pitfalls of stardom, Matt Moore survived in Hollywood into the late '50s, though his leading-man days were over by 1930 and he had to be content with character parts. RKO's 1929 talkie "Side Street" gives modern viewers a rare opportunity to see all three Moore brothers in the same picture -- with Matt, the youngest, appearing to be the most mature of the group. ~ Hal Erickson, All Movie Guide
