Biography

Ullrich Haupt Sr. entame sa carrière d'acteur au théâtre en Allemagne et joue entre autres à Berlin. Puis, au début des années 1910, il s'installe aux États-Unis.

Ainsi, il contribue au cinéma à trente-cinq films américains (dont des courts métrages) dès la période du muet, le premier sorti en 1915. Le dernier est The Unholy Garden de George Fitzmaurice (avec Ronald Colman et Fay Wray), sorti le 28 octobre 1931, moins de trois mois après sa mort prématurée (à trois jours de ses 44 ans), suite à un accident de chasse.

Parmi ses films notables, mentionnons Tempête de Lewis Milestone et autres (1928, avec John Barrymore et Camilla Horn), Le Masque de fer d'Allan Dwan (1929, avec Douglas Fairbanks et Marguerite De La Motte), Cœurs brûlés de Josef von Sternberg (1930, avec Gary Cooper et Marlène Dietrich) et Hors du gouffre de Raoul Walsh (1931, avec Janet Gaynor et Charles Farrell).
