was Billy Bevan australias' first hollywood actor ?
http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Billy_Bevan
i reckon he'd have to be, i watched him last night on dvd, only had a small part in the film, the film titled ''terror by night'' starring Basil Rathbone & Nigel Bruce (as Sherlock Holmes & Dr. Watson), even though i've seen the film before it was an entertaining film as all the Sherlock Holmes' films are (the best is 'the scarlett claw')
but is Billy Bevan our first hollywood actor ?

Wouldn't be at all surprised if he was.
Now here's one for you.
How about Adelaide's first Holywood star???
I reckon it's this one and she was in one of my favourite ancient films...playing the wonderfully evil Mrs Danvers

Norwood girl too by the looks of it

George Beranger - The Switch Tower 1913, will see if i can find any earlier.
The first feature film ever made anywhere in the world was in Australia, The Story of the Kelly Gang in 1906

The first ever nude scene in a Hollywood movie was also an Australian, Annette Kellerman in A Daughter of the Gods in 1916

Louise Lovely (born Nellie Louise Alberti, 28 February 1895 – 18 March 1980) was the first Australian motion picture actress to find success in America. As such, she can be considered a forerunner to successful contemporary Australian actresses such as Nicole Kidman, Toni Collette, Naomi Watts, and Cate Blanchett.
