The following year, O'Hara was credited as associate producer (as well as playing a bit as a cameraman) in Ben Turpin's A Small Town Idol and he later wrote continuity and titles for such programmers as Beau Broadway (1928), Side Street (1929), and Night Parade (1929). As an actor, O'Hara was quite popular in comedy series such as FBO's The Go-Getters (1924-1925) and The Pacemakers (1925), the boxing series Fighting Blood (1926), and the action serials Casey of the Coast Guard (1926) and Pirates of the Pines (1928). Leaving films at the advent of sound, the former star returned as an extra in the late '30s. ~ Hans J. Wollstein, Rovi
