Bruce Glover made a number of notable film appearances in the 70s, including 1974's Chinatown, 1973's Walking Tall and Hard Times (1975).
He first began acting after serving in the US Army from 1953 to 1955, during which time he served six months in Korea. Born in Chigago to Eva Elvira and Herbert Horman Glover, he was of Czech, English and Swedish descent.
