William Haade Biography

American actor

William Haade (March 2, 1903 – November 15, 1966) was an American film actor. He appeared in more than 250 films between 1937 and 1957. He was born in New York City and died in Los Angeles, California.

Early life and career

Born and raised in Manhattan, New York City, Haade was one of four children born to Bernard Francis Haade and Annie Kelly, one of whom died at the age of one in 1908. Following the death of his birth father in 1909, Haade's mother married William Bittner, resulting in the eventual acquisition of four additional half-siblings.

Haade was a construction boss until he began acting, appearing in Iron Men (1936) on Broadway. A technical advisor to Norman Bel Geddes recommended Haade to his boss, who was seeking a fresh face for the play's lead.

Personal life and death

Haade was married once, to Anna R. Sincere. They had two sons, William Joseph and Edward John Haade.

Haade died on November 15, 1966.
