Irish-American Celebrities
Tyrone Power
An American film and stage actor who appeared in dozens of films from the 1930s to the 1950s, Tyrone Power often starred in swashbuckler roles or romantic leads such as in The Mask of Zorro, Blood and Sand, The Black Swan, Prince of Foxes, The Black Rose, and Captain from Castille. Though renowned for his dark, classically handsome looks that made him a matinee idol from his first film appearance, Power played a wide range of roles, from film noir to light romantic comedy. In the 1950s, he began placing limits on the number of movies he would make in order to have time for the stage. He received his biggest accolades as a stage actor in John Brown's Body and Mister Roberts. Power died of a heart attack at the age of 44.
