VARIANT NAME: Kean, Cowboy.
WHERE/WHEN ACTIVE: Vancouver/1913-1927.
STATUS: Commercial.
BIOGRAHPICAL SUMMARY: A retired bronco buster, A.D. Kean last rode professionally in the
1912 Calgary Stampede on " Gray Silvers." He moved to Vancouver the next
year where he quickly established a reputation as a filmmaker. He filmed
such events as troop departures for the European front during the first
world war, whaling activities on the high seas and at shore stations, and
numerous short industrial and travel subjects for a provincial government
agency to which he was contracted in the early 1920s. Much of his cinematic
output, including an epic melodrama titled Policing the Plains (p1924-1927),
was lost over the years. His trademark logo was a cowboy roping a bull
whose lariat spelled " Kean's Canada Films" . Following the commercial failure
of Policing the Plains, Kean parlayed his creative talents into
radio and writing. He continued to photograph until his death.
