Biographie:
Glenn Strange est un acteur américain né le 16 août 1899 à Weed (Nouveau-Mexique) et mort le 20 septembre 1973 à Los Angeles. Glenn Strange, fils d'un propriétaire de ranch, grandit dans l'ouest du Texas. Il débute comme musicien avant d'entamer une carrière d'acteur de seconds rôles, apparaissant notamment dans de nombreux westerns. En 1944, sa haute taille et la forme de son visage, adaptée au maquillage conçu par Jack Pierce - lui valent de reprendre le rôle du monstre de Frankenstein dans La Maison de Frankenstein, produit par Universal. Sur ce film, il bénéficie de l'aide de Boris Karloff, l'interprète original du rôle, qui joue cette fois un autre personnage, et qui accepte de conseiller son successeur. Glenn Strange joue à nouveau la créature dans La Maison de Dracula (1945) puis dans la parodie Abbott et Costello contre Frankenstein. Dans les années qui suivent, il fait de nombreuses autres apparitions dans le rôle du monstre, non plus dans des films mais dans des sketches comiques réalisés pour la télévision que dans des publicités. Il devient, dans l'esprit du public américain, si associé au personnage du monstre de Frankenstein qu'en 1969, le New York Times accompagne par erreur la nécrologie de Boris Karloff d'une photo de Glenn Strange en costume de monstre.
