Career
Catlett was born in San Francisco, California, on February 4, 1889.
He began in vaudeville, collaborating with Hobart Cavanaugh at some point, but before bursting into acting, he began a wait.
He appeared on stage in 1906 and made his first Broadway appearance in either The Prince of Pilsen (1910 or 1911) or So Long Letty (1916). His first film appearance was in 1912, but he returned to the stage but not return to film until 1929. He appeared in operettas and musicals, including The Ziegfeld Follies of 1917, the first production of the Jerome Kern musical Sally (1920) and the Gershwins' Lady, Be Well (1924). "Oh, Lady Be Good" was the singer's final song on the album. He appeared in, stage-managed, and rewrote an Oliver Morosco-Harry Plani performance titled Look Pleasant, which was on display at the Majestic Theatre in Los Angeles in 1918. King George V chuckled "uproarily" at his antics in the musical Baby Bunting in London in 1922.
Catlett made a few silent film appearances, but his film career didn't start until the invention of talking pictures allowed moviegoers to experience his complete comedic repertoire. He appeared in a number of 'two-reelers,' many in the Thirties, and others as a comedy pair with Eugene Pallette for RKO; the bulk of RKO were for Columbia, but six were for Columbia between 1934 and 1940.
In James Cagney's classic screwball comedy Bringing Up Baby, the theatre manager is driven to distraction by James Cagney's character, the local constable who throws the entire cast in jail and winds up there himself, and Morrow, the inebriated poet in the restaurant who "knows when [he's] been a skunk" and lures Longfellow Deeds to "bender" in Mr. Deeds Goes to Town. When filming Bringing Up Baby, it was also reported that he was Katharine Hepburn's comedy coach. Mordaunt Hall, a film critic for the New York Times, wrote, "This clever comedian steals the acting laurels" from Big City Blues (1932). In 1935 David O. Selznick's production of A Tale of Two Cities starring Ronald Colman, he played John Barsad. J. Worthington Foulfellow (a.k.a.) was also known as the uncredited voice of J. Worthington Foulfellow (a.k.a. Honest John (French) Fox, Walt Disney's main villain in Walt Disney's 1940 animated film Pinocchio, is John Fox.
