[Top]
Henry Silva, an actor of Puerto Rican heritage who has played a wide variety of heavies in the movies, was born on September 15, 1928 in Brooklyn, New York. Bitten by the acting big, he quit school when he was 13 years old to attend drama classes, supporting himself as a dishwasher & waiter in a Manhattan hotel. By 1955, Silva felt ready to audition for the Actors Studio. He was one of five students chosen out of more than 2,500 applicants. When the Studio staged Michael V Gazzo s play, A Hatful of Rain as a classroom project, it proved so successful it came to Broadway, with students Ben Gazzara, Shelley Winters, Harry Guardino, Tony Franciosa & Henry Silva in key roles. Silva also appeared in the movie version of the play. Called to Hollywood, he played a succession of heavies in films including The Tall T, The Bravados, Green Mansions, Oceans Eleven, The Manchurian Candidate & Johnny Cool. An Italian producer made Henry an offer he couldnt refuse--to star as a hero for a change--and he moved his family overseas.
