Person

Peter Nielsen

(1876 – 1949)

Danish actor, born December 2 1876, died September 27 1949. He started his career as a prominent silent film actor, featuring in around 75 films, including A.W. Sandberg's Dickens films. With his brutal, dogged, cold and grim appearance, he was often cast as the villain. When sound film took over, however, some of his stardom faded. His biggest role of later date was that of detective inspector in "Mordets Melodi", 1944.
