child actor, notable for appearing in Hal Roach's Our Gang series. His

sister Mildred Davis also acted; she appeared in Roach comedian Harold

Lloyd's films as his leading lady. When Lloyd and Mildred were married

in 1923, Lloyd pulled Jack out of Our Gang and enrolled him in

military school.Davis first appeared in the first Our Gang short,

Young Sherlocks. He was known as the little tough boy and was a rival

(usually with Mickey) for Mary Kornman's affections. In other shorts

he was a just a member of the gang instead of a bully. Davis' screen

career ended after 19 shorts in the series when Harold Lloyd and his

older sister, Mildred Davis, got married, and Lloyd put the boy into

military school. His final appearance was the 1923 short Derby Day.

After degrees in anthropology and medicine Davis became a successful
