From the Britannica: "Macklin first appeared as an actor at Bristol and in 1725 went to Lincoln's Inn Fields London. A man of violent nature he was a pioneer against the stilted declamation of his day. He went to Drury Lane Theatre in 1733 and later was concerned in its management. In 1735 he killed another actor in the greenroom over a dispute about a wig but although prosecuted he received no sentence. He set the seal on his stage career at Drury Lane on Feb. 14 1741 when he played Shylock rescuing the part from the broad comedy with which it had long been surrounded. Macklin played many parts with distinction but was constantly involved in disputes and lawsuits. He attempted to be a restaurateur but failed and returned to the stage. Two of his plays were outstanding Love à la mode 1759 and The Man of the World 1781. At the time of his death he claimed to be 107 years old; he may have been a centenarian but this is subject to dispute. The length of his association with the stage however unquestionably made him a pillar of the English theatre. printed for James Asperne, at the Bible, Crown, and Constitution, Cornhill unknown
