Larry Semon (July 16, 1889 - October 8, 1928) was an American actor, director, producer, and screenwriter during the silent film era. During that era, Semon was considered a "Comedy King", but is now mainly remembered for working with both Stan Laurel and Oliver Hardy before they started working together. He is also sometimes noted for directing (as well as appearing in) Wizard of Oz, a 1925 silent film that had a slight influence on the more famous 1939 MGM talkie version.

- Larry Semon (July 16, 1889 - October 8, 1928) was an American actor, director, producer, and screenwriter during the silent film era. During that era, Semon was considered a "Comedy King", but is now mainly remembered for working with both Stan Laurel and Oliver Hardy before they started working together. He is also sometimes noted for directing (as well as appearing in) Wizard of Oz, a 1925 silent film that had a slight influence on the more famous 1939 MGM talkie version. The compliment was repaid in the 2005 3-disc DVD version of the 1939 film, on which the 1925 version also appears along with other silent "Oz" movies.
- Maschera caratteristica, clown per eccellenza: viso infarinato, candido, su cui campeggia un naso smisurato e ricurvo, due occhi tondi in un viso affilato, pantaloni sorretti altissimi appena sotto le ascelle ma che lasciano scoperte le caviglie ed un cappellaccio che non casca mai nemmeno nelle ardite acrobazie, Larry Semon all’apice della sua carriera seppe rivaleggiare alla pari con i grandi della commedia: Charlie Chaplin, Harold Lloyd, Buster Keaton, contendendosi i favori del pubblico. In particolare amato per il suo stile semplice, tutto gags, azione, movimento, certo meno poetico del grande Charlot ma in compenso immediatamente accessibile. Oggi ritenuto, a torto, un comico minore, ma la sua indubbia levatura artistica ne perpetua la memoria.
