John Tylor Mapes (November 25, 1901 – September 9, 1984) was an American character actor, who was also a prolific stuntman and body double.  Born on November 25, 1901, in St. Edward, Nebraska, he moved to Los Angeles in his mid-20s, and entered the film industry in 1929, first as a grip, and then as a stuntman and actor.  He doubled for many famous actors, including Jimmy Stewart and Gary Cooper.  His film and television career spanned forty years, during which time he appeared in hundreds of films and television shows, either as an actor, stuntman or body double.
