Who was Dennis Moore?
Dennis Moore was an actor who specialized in western films and film serials.
He began appearing in short subjects and low-budget feature films in the 1930s under the name "Denny Meadows," and enjoyed greater recognition and employment after he changed his professional name to Dennis Moore. His dark looks and solemn demeanor kept him working steadily as an all-purpose utility player, in both heroic and villainous roles. Moore became a familiar face in westerns but never became a major star. He also appeared on television in the syndicated The Range Rider, with Jock Mahoney and Dick Jones, in the 1955 CBS series Brave Eagle with Keith Larsen, and in the 1956 episode "Panhandle" of the CBS series, Tales of the Texas Rangers, with Willard Parker and Harry Lauter.
He was cast as Mr. Finley in "The Gold Watch" and as Jeb in "A Permanent Juliet" on the NBC western series, Buckskin, starring Tom Nolan, Sally Brophy, and Mike Road. He was cast as Walker in the 1958 episode, "Three Wanted Men," of the syndicated western series, Frontier Doctor, starring Rex Allen.
He also guest starred on the syndicated adventure series, Rescue 8, starring Jim Davis and Lang Jeffries, the crime drama, U.S. Marshal, starring John Bromfield, and the NBC western Riverboat, starring Darren McGavin.
