Wilton Taylor (1869 – January 24, 1925) was an American male actor who performed on stage and in silent films. He usually played gruff men of authority like wardens, judges or the police commissioner in Tod Browning's Outside the Law (1920). Of some other surviving silent he can be seen in Houdini's Terror Island (1920). Prior to entering films he spent some years on the stage and appeared as a police inspector in the original 1912 Broadway production of Within the Law starring Jane Cowl. Taylor died in January 1925.[1]
