Lisa Stein Haven, Assistant Professor of English at Ohio University-Zaneville and author of the re-issue of Charlie Chaplin’s “A Comedian Sees the World” with her annotations and hyper-textual enhancements, dedicates an entire site to Charlie’s half brother, Sydney Chaplin, which is complementary to her book about his life and art, Syd Chaplin: A Biography

After several years as a vaudeville comedian for the Karno Company and then as a Keystone actor in the USA - Sydney considerably helped his brother with his career and its financial aspects. He was a real business manager for him and negociated Charlie’s biggest contracts. He was a real bon vivant.
