Born in a sod house on a ranch near Hildreth, Nebraska in 1908, Lyden was the son of a horse buyer for the U.S. Army cavalry, and acquired as a youngster riding skills that later made it possible for him to do his own stunts as an actor in Hollywood westerns. He attended high school in Naponee, Nebraska, and acted in several plays there; he graduated from the University of Nebraska School of Music and Fine Arts in 1927 and later studied at the Emerson College of Oratory in Boston. When talking movies eclipsed live theater presentations in small towns, Lyden went on to Hollywood in 1932. There he played villains' roles in B Western films, quickly becoming typecast as a 'bad guy,' specializing in fight scenes. He appeared in Saturday serials called cliffhangers as well as in feature films and television series. The number of his movie roles has been estimated at between 300 and 400 (actors who did not have major parts were not listed in film credits); he also appeared in about 150 episodes of The Cisco Kid, Wild Bill Hickok, Bat Masterson, The Lone Ranger, and other television series. He worked with the most famous Western movie actors, including Roy Rogers, Gene Autry, and Hopalong Cassidy. He was Photo Press Fan Poll 'Villain of the Year' in 1944. In 1989 Naponee, Nebraska, named a street for him and held a Pierce Lyden film festival; in 1997 he received Nebraska's Buffalo Bill Award. In 1996, a Golden Palm Star on the Palm Springs, California, Walk of Stars was dedicated to him.…
