Biography
Larry Williams (born Lawrence Edward Williams) was a photographer who became a cameraman with the Thanho Company. It's not known exactly when he started with them, though is known that he was there as early as 1912. He was the first cameraman - in 1914 - to use a stereoscopic camera system, which he installed in a Pathe camera and used in a Mary Pickford production.
In 1915 he worked for Famous Players, but returned to Thanho in that same year. However, the next year he left Thanho to work for Box Office Attractions (later to become Fox Films, which itself became 20th Century-Fox), only to return to Thanho again.
In April of that year his brother, Famous Players cinematographer Emmett A. Williams, died and Larry left Thanho to take his brother's place at Famous Players. He later worked for Artcraft Pictures.
Williams stayed active in the film industry until shortly before his death on March 30, 1956 in Hollywood, California.
