, Kibbee began his entertainment career on Mississippi riverboats and eventually became a successful
Broadway
actor. In the 1930s, Kibbee moved to California
and became part of what became known as "Warner Bros.' stock company", contracted actors
who cycled through different productions in supporting
roles. Kibbee's specialty was daft and jovial characters and
he is best remembered for the films 42nd Street (1933), The Gold Diggers of 1933
(1933), Captain Blood
(1935), and Mr. Smith
Goes to Washington (1939), though he gives a deftly subtle
performance as the expat inn owner in Joan
Crawford's Rain.
