Bud Osborne (July 20, 1884 – February 2, 1964) was an American film actor. He appeared in more than 600 films and television programs between 1912 and 1963.

Osborne was born in Knox County, Texas, and died in Hollywood, California from a heart attack. Osborne specialized in westerns, and was also noted for his skill as a stage driver, and was thus much in demand from his first film in 1912, right through the early 1950s. He was working as a stunt man as late as 1948, in Ray Enright's Return of the Bad Men.

As he grew older, Osborne played small character parts in television westerns such series as Have Gun – Will Travel, Bonanza, Bat Masterson, Rawhide and The Lone Ranger. His last role, was in an episode of Gunsmoke in 1963. His career spanned 51 years, with a total of 607 films and television episodes to his credit.

Biography

Second rôle de caractère parfois non crédité, Bud Osborne reste connu comme acteur de western principalement et contribue au cinéma à cinq-cent-quatre-vingt-six films américains (dont cinquante-six courts métrages et de nombreux serials) dès la période du muet, depuis For the Cause de Thomas H. Ince et Francis Ford (1912, avec Ray Myers) jusqu'à Night of the Ghouls d'Ed Wood (1959, avec Tor Johnson).

L'un de ses partenaires de premier plan est John Wayne, qu'il retrouve notamment sur le serial policier L'Aigle de la mort de Ford Beebe et B. Reeves Eason (1932), ou encore les westerns Le Premier Rebelle de William A. Seiter (1939) et Les Écumeurs de Ray Enright (1942).

Parmi ses autres films, citons Trois sublimes canailles de John Ford (1926, avec George O'Brien et Olive Borden), Ciel rouge de Robert Wise (1948, avec Robert Mitchum et Barbara Bel Geddes) et La Fiancée du monstre d'Ed Wood (1955, avec Béla Lugosi et Tor Johnson).

À la télévision américaine, outre deux téléfilms (1950-1953), Bud Osborne apparaît dans quarante-deux séries (surtout de western), depuis The Gene Autry Show (trois épisodes, 1950) jusqu'à Gunsmoke (un épisode, 1963). Entretemps, mentionnons The Lone Ranger (six épisodes, 1950-1956), Rintintin (quatre épisodes, 1955-1958) et Rawhide (deux épisodes, 1960-1962).
