Biographie

Émigré en 1911 aux États-Unis (où il se fait connaître comme Richard Fryer), il y intègre l'industrie du cinéma et débute comme assistant cameraman sur un film muet de 1914. Puis il contribue comme chef opérateur à une trentaine de films américains (entre autres des westerns), le premier sorti en 1918.

Il collabore surtout à des serials dans les années 1930 (entretemps, il est naturalisé américain en 1928), dont Rustlers of Red Dog de Lew Landers (1935, avec Johnny Mack Brown et Joyce Compton) et Flash Gordon de Frederick Stephani et Ray Taylor (1936, avec Buster Crabbe dans le rôle-titre et Charles Middleton).

Ses deux derniers longs métrages sont le film dramatique Une voix dans la tempête d'Arthur Ripley (avec Francis Lederer et Sigrid Gurie) et un ultime serial, Black Arrow de Lew Landers et B. Reeves Eason (avec Adele Jergens et Charles Middleton), sortis en 1944 ; ils sont suivis par un court métrage de 1946, après lequel il se retire.

Richard Fryer meurt prématurément en 1953, à 58 ans.

However, Stanley Brasset, another member of Moreland's club, steals his map and sets out to find the treasure for himself.
