C. Henry Gordon (born Henry Racke) was an American stage and screen actor. Sources conflict as to whether his June 17 birth date was in 1884 or in 1883. (1884 is most commonly accepted, though most of his obituaries state he died at age 57.)
He was an American stage and screen actor who worked extensively during the 1930s, primarily as a character player in major Hollywood studio productions.
He is best known for portraying duplicitous villains and authority figures in films such as Scarface (1932), The Charge of the Light Brigade (1936), and several entries in the Charlie Chan mystery series.
