Peter Gowland Autobiography
I refer to my father, Gibson Gowland, as "the unknown celebrity" because of his only starring role in a film that has become a classic, Greed directed by Erich von Stroheim in 1924.
He was McTeague, the lead character. While Greed is still shown and written about, Gibson's other 87 film roles never came up to that first burst of fame. A mild mannered man in reality, he was always cast in villainous roles; Simon Legree in Topsy and Eva, raping Joan Crawford in Rose Marie. He lived modestly on small pay checks.
Originally, Gibson came to the United States from England, by way of Canada in 1913 and there met Beatrice Bird, also from England, whom he married.
