My Take

Tyrone Power Sr. is the kind of figure I love to champion precisely because history tends to overlook him. London-born, he built his name on the stage before crossing into early cinema, and today he's mostly remembered as the father of a more famous son. But the acting dynasty started with him, and I think the elder deserves the louder applause. Thrice widowed and working until his death in 1931, he embodied a life given entirely to the craft. There's something poignant about an originator fading behind his own legacy. I'd rather celebrate the root than the branch.

Overview

Frederick Tyrone Edmond Power Sr. (2 May 1869 – 23 December 1931) was an English-born American stage and screen actor, known professionally as Tyrone Power. He is now usually referred to as Tyrone Power Sr. to differentiate him from his son, actor Tyrone Power. He was thrice widowed.
