Born Earl Craver in Kansas in 1931, Cal Bolder appeared in several films and a number of TV shows from 1960 to 1968,. After attending college and doing a stint in the Marines, Bolder relocated to Los Angeles and became a policeman. A chance meeting with notorious agent Henry Willson (he gave Willson a ticket, but Willson was too enamored with the size of Mr. Craver’s biceps to care) got him into acting. Mr. Wilson came up with the name “Cal” short for California and “Bolder” to emphasize Mr. Cravers build.
Today, Cal Bolder is perhaps best known for his role in the campy 1966 horror film "Jesse James Meets Frankenstein's Daughter". from which the picture above is taken. In the late 1960s, Bolder retired from acting and moved his family to Washington. In 2001, he published a novel, Last "Reunion", under his real name E. C. Craver,
Sadly, Cal Bolder passed away on January 19, 2005, from cancer at age 74.
