New Book Spotlights Bank Robber-Turned-Silent Film Actor Henry Starr

Long before Hollywood perfected the outlaw antihero, Henry Starr was writing his own script across the banks and backroads of Indian Territory and Oklahoma. A Cherokee bank robber who famously vowed that no one would die in his heists, Starr was sentenced to hang twice, won a commutation from President Theodore Roosevelt, and ultimately stepped in front of the camera as a silent “movie Starr,” dramatizing his own life for audiences across the West. In his new book and ongoing film and theater projects, writer and filmmaker Mark Archuleta traces Starr’s remarkable trajectory from “gentleman bandit” to matinee idol, peeling back the layers of myth, racism, and dime-novel sensationalism to reveal the complex man behind the legend.
