ARTHUR TREACHER

Arthur Treacher was an English actor from the 1920s to the 1960s and was the quintessential English butler, a role he played in many Hollywood movies over several decades. Some of his movies include: Mary Poppins, National Velvet, The Little Princess, A Midsummer Night's Dream, Heidi, and In Society. He was a frequent guest on The Merv Griffin Show in the 1960s, and his reputation was such that he was able to open a chain of restaurants called "Arthur Treacher's Fish and Chips", which had over 500 locations (but was sold to Mrs. Paul's Seafood in the 1970s). He passed away in 1975 at the age of 81.
