Personal life edit

Coxen was born in London, England.[2] He came to the United States as a child and lived much of his life in San Francisco.[3]

On 31 March 1884 whilst settled in San Francisco, Sarah Coxen gave birth to Ed Coxen's only sibling, a sister, Rosa A Coxen. On 14 October 1914, at the age of 33, he married Edith Victoria Borella in Los Angeles,[4] a 24-year-old[5] film actress born in Switzerland[6] of Swiss parents. Borella, who also used the screen names of Eda, Ada and Aida, had played minor parts alongside Coxen in films such as Restitution, where Winifred Greenwood played his love interest. Edith Borella Coxen died in Los Angeles on 6 March 1974[7]

After studying engineering, Coxen became a prospector before he eventually became an actor.[3]

Career edit

Coxen's acting career began in 1906[8] at the Majestic Theatre in San Francisco. He continued to perform with stock companies until he began working in films.[3] He appeared in more than 50 films, beginning in 1912 and ending in 1943 with Air Raid Wardens. Much of his work was in melodramas and Westerns.[1]

Death edit

On 21 November 1954, Coxen died at his longtime home, 464 N Manhattan Place, Los Angeles.[9] He was buried at Forest Lawn Memorial Park in Glendale, California. This brief obituary[10] for Albert Edward Coxen appeared shortly after his interment: 'Mr Coxen started his career at San Francisco and worked in both silent and talking motion pictures. He played with Rudolf Valentino, Ruth Roland and William S Hart. He leaves his widow Mrs Edith Victoria Coxen and a sister Mrs Rosa A Corder'.
