Is Dean Jagger A Mormon?
Dean Jagger is not a Mormon, although he is widely respected by members of the Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-day Saints.
Dean Jagger was born in Columbus Grove, Ohio in 1903, and his life before acting is largely unknown. It is speculated that he was a school teacher, but no actual records exist to confirm this. Instead, what is publicly known about Dean Jagger is the acting career he enjoyed from the mid-1930s up until his death in 1991.
He was well respected for his work, and found success playing a variety of roles. Whether it was a college professor in “A Letter to Three Wives”, a general in “Twelve O’Clock High”, or a Jack Dudley in “Bad Day at Black Rock”, he played his parts with finesse. He even won an Academy Award for Best Supporting actor in 1949 for his performance in “Twelve O’Clock High.”
Given his status in the entertainment world it is certainly plausible to think that Jagger may have belonged to the Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-Day Saints. However, despite his notoriety, there is no evidence at all indicating that he was a practicing Mormon or even had an interest in the religion.
In fact, he never made any public statement that could be interpreted as being indicative of him being a practicing member or even a sympathizer of the Church. Moreover, his family was heavily involved in Quakerism, and there are no records indicating that Jagger ever converted or had any meaningful affiliation with the Mormon Church.
In conclusion, despite his accomplishments and fame, there is nothing to suggest that Dean Jagger was a Mormon, or had any interest in the religion.
