does anyone know this person? caption says the photo was taken right after Rudy and Natacha married, so it's about 1922. I may not be sure but I think he's an actor in FOUR HORSEMEN with Rudy. Just a hunch. He also has resemblance to director W.S. Van Dyke, but Van Dyke wasn't associated with Rudy.

I believe its the Mayor of Mexicali where Valentino and Rambova were married (for the 1st time) He officiated at their wedding vows. Sorry, I dont have his name at hand.

Interesting photo. I never knew that Natacha had only one leg. That must have made it hard to do the Tango.

Rudy reportedly had a third leg, so it evened out.....

I believe I have the alternate photo in my book, this man is unidentified. The mayor is in my book and his nameescapes me. I think, think mind you, this man was a journalist.

It looks like this exact photo, along with another with more people are in Rudolph Valentino: The Silent Idol, and he's not identified in either. Another man is identified as the mayor.

Thanks Mary. Subsequent to publication, I found a reference that he's a well known Mexican journalist. Of course, I can,t find it now with his name.

Whoever he is, he looks thrilled to be there.

Paul Ivano, Rudy's good friend. According to this Natacha site which has the picture. It does look like a young Paul of the time , I only know of Paul as he was interviewed on HOLLYWOOD.

RUDY GOES PUNK
for those in the know, is this a real photo of Rudy looking somewhere between geek-and-punk? I've never seen Valentino like this. I think it's cool but pray it's not photoshop. His hair almost reminds me of a Harold Lloyd static-electricity scene in one of his comedies.
