Trivia

• He was buried a Roman Catholic next to his second wife and his brother, John Barrymore, in Calvary Cemetery, Hollywood.
• He played Scrooge in "A Christmas Carol" on the radio annually.
• The three Barrymore siblings (Lionel Barrymore, Ethel Barrymore and John Barrymore) appeared in only one film together: Rasputin and the Empress (1932). Lionel and John Barrymore appeared without Ethel Barrymore in Arsène Lupin (1932), Grand Hotel (1932), Night Flight (1933) and Dinner at Eight (1933). A decade after John Barrymore's demise, Lionel and Ethel Barrymore appeared in Main Street to Broadway (1953), which incidentally was Lionel's last film.
• Screen, stage, radio, vaudeville actor, film producer, and screenwriter.
• Acted from wheelchair from 1938 due to the effects of arthritis and hip injury.
• Interred at Calvary Cemetery, Los Angeles, California, USA, in the Main Mausoleum, Block 352.
• Son of Maurice Barrymore and Georgiana Barrymore; grandson of Louisa Drew and stage actor John Drew (1827-62); nephew of Sidney Drew; cousin of S. Rankin Drew. Fathered two daughters: Ethel (1909-1910) and Mary (1916-1917).
• Reared Roman Catholic by their mother, the three Barrymore siblings all had suffered the stigma of divorce (doubtless connected to the family business) and only Ethel Barrymore was a practicing Catholic in adulthood.
• Great uncle of Drew Barrymore.
• Portrayed Dr. Gillespie on the syndicated radio show "The Story of Dr. Kildare" (1950-1951).
• His name appeared in the Looney Toons Cartoon One Froggy Evening (1955) (directed by Chuck Jones) in a newspaper on a park bench before the distraught man was sent to a psychiatric ward because the frog would not sing in front of anyone else.
• Uncle of John Drew Barrymore.
• In the 1960s cartoon series "Underdog" (1964), Underdog's nemesis, Simon Bar Sinister, has a voice reminiscent of Barrymore.
• He and his sister Ethel Barrymore were the first Oscar-winning brother and sister.
• Invented the boom microphone.
• He was one of the very few screen actors in the 1930s, 1940s and early 1950s who had a prolific career despite being in a wheelchair. From 1938, his screen roles were written to accommodate his disability.
• Started as a stock player at the Biograph Company. His first film was The Paris Hat (1908), which seems to be a lost Biograph film. His second film was Fighting Blood (1911), produced by the Biograph Company in 1911.
