Jack Connolly was an actor who appeared in many silent films during the early 20th century.
Despite a lengthy filmography, very little is known about Connolly or his personal life. He has been described as "a completely lost player who can only be identified by the movies he made."
He had a lead role in the 1916 film ''The Mask of Fortune''. He portrayed a wrongly convicted former prisoner working on a ranch in ''The Wolverine''.
