PostSubject: BILLY BARTY - GIN'S REQUEST   David's Little House Star Profiles and Trivia - Page 8 EmptySat May 12, 2012 5:33 pm

BILLY BARTY
Date of Birth
25 October 1924, Millsboro, Pennsylvania, USA
Date of Death
23 December 2000, Glendale, California, USA (heart failure)
birth Name
William John Bertanzetti
Height
3' 9" (1.14 m)
Billy Barty began performing at three and began making pictures in 1927. He played Mickey Rooney's little brother in the "Mickey McGuire" comedy shorts series. He was equally adept in both comedy and drama, and generally gives an added zest to any production he is associated with. He founded the Little People of America in 1957 and the Billy Barty Foundation in 1975. He possessed an immense talent and energetic charm that added a much needed shot in the arm to many shows and films.
IMDb Mini Biography By: Xeresa@home.com


Spouse
Shirley Bolingbroke
MARRIED (24 February 1962 - 23 December 2000) (his death) 2 children
Hospitalized overnight for injuries from a motor scooter accident during a parade. [28 May 1999]

Founder of The Little People of America Inc., a philanthropic organization of which no one taller than 4 ft 6 inches may become a member.

Father of a son, Braden Barty and a daughter, Lori.

His funeral was held at the Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-day Saints in North Hollywood, California on December 27, 2000.

Billy died at 9:20 a.m. PST at Glendale Memorial Hospital after a two-week stay with lung and heart problems.

He was a noted crusader for the greater public knowledge and social acceptance of dwarfs and was angered at his contemporary with a similar condition, Hervé Villechaize, for hampering his efforts by publicly insisting that he (Villechaize) was a midget instead.

He hosted his own daily kids TV show, "Billy Barty's Big Show" (1963), where he entertained and informed his viewers and studio audiences in between reruns of The Three Stooges films. It was seen weekday afternoons on KTTV Ch.11 in Hollywood, California from the early to mid 1960s.

In 1991, after the first Gulf War, Rush Limbaugh, on his radio show, spoke of making a movie about it. When somebody suggested casting Billy Barty, Limbaugh said he was dead; however, the next day, Barty, who admitted he listened to Limbaugh's show regularly but had missed it that day, called in to prove otherwise.

Has a granddaughter, Tina.

He was on the Board with former President George Bush to help pass the Americans with Disabilities Act.

Audio book: "Highlights from Within Reach," available only from the official web-site. [October 2005]

Majored in journalism at L.A. City College and was both sports editor and public relations director of the "L.A. Collegian" newspaper.

Had an admirable college career in sports: He played both football and basketball, plus ran 50 yards in 7.2 seconds.

Los Angeles KRTH-FM Radio News Director Steve Fredericks once asked the 3-foot, 10-inch-tall actor in an interview whether, if he could suddenly become a "big" person, if he would choose that. After a long and thoughtful pause, Barty said, "No . . . because I've made all the adjustments.".

Said one of his major pet peeves was when people would try to pick him up as though he were a child.

Ironically, in 1990 producer/writer William Winckler sued Billy Barty in Small Claims Court in Van Nuys, California for money that was owed him on the TV comedy series Short Ribbs, and Winckler won the case against Barty. The press had a "field day" with all the publicity, stories ran through AP, UPI, The Daily News, ABC-TV News Los Angeles by reporter Joe McMann, and news swept throughout the country. Stories of Billy Barty being sued in Small Claims Court appeared in nearly every newspaper in the U.S. and internationally, on radio news shows, and covered by TV news stations. Entertainment Tonight ran a story on Billy Barty being taken to small claims court. Barty himself said it was the most negative publicity he ever had in his life, with headlines such as "Small Billy Barty in Small Claims," "Barty Comes Up Short in Small Claims," etc. . Barty added that he got nearly as much publicity as Zsa Zsa Gabor did for slapping a Beverly Hills police officer around the same time (1990). Short Ribbs writer Warren Taylor also sued Barty in Small Claims Court and won this case as well.

I NORMALLY DO NOT DO TWO ACTORS IN ONE PROFILE, BUT I THINK THESE TWO EXEMPLIFY THE REASON THAT THE ACTING PROFESSION HAS ALWAYS PEAKED MY CURIOSITY WHEN IT COMES TO THE TRIVIA END OF THE BUSINESS.
THESE TWO BOTH APPEARED IN "BLESS ALL THE DEAR CHILDREN" IN 1984.
ONE HAD A SPEAKING PART, THE OTHER DID NOT. THE ACTOR THAT HAD THE SPEAKING PART HAD A TWO YEAR CAREER. THE NON SPEAKING PART WAS VERY SUCCESSFUL.

JOEL GRAVES - NO BIRTHDATE AVAILABLE. HE APPEARED IN FOUR TV SHOWS FROM 1983 TO 1985. WHO WILL LOVE MY CHILDREN, ITS AN ADVENTURE, CHARLIE BROWN, SCARECROW AND MRS KING.
HE WAS IN ONE LITTLE HOUSE EPISODE
BLESS ALL THE DEAR CHILDREN - 1984
HE PLAYED SAM, THE ORPHAN BOY WHO HELPED THE WILDERS FIND ROSE
HE WAS EVENTUALLY ADOPTED BY THE WOMAN WHO ABDUCTED ROSE

David's Little House Star Profiles and Trivia - Page 8 Joel_g10

ANGELLA KAYE WAS BORN IN MARCH OF 1975 IN KANSAS CITY, MISSOURI.
SHE IS AN ACTRESS THAT HAS BEEN IN OVER 76 TITLES. THE MAJORITY BEING UNCREDITED. SHE WAS QUOTED AS SAYING:
"I always enjoy working, even if it's uncredited or as an extra. I've never worked for the recognition, it's just nice to be able to say that I was a part of something."
BY THE AGE OF TEN, SHE HAD APPEARED IN OVER TWO DOZEN COMMERCIALS INCLUDING MCDONALDS AND CHEERIOS. SHE WAS ON HIGHWAY TO HEAVEN AS WELL AS LITTLE HOUSE, BOTH IN UNCREDITED ROLES.
SHE ALSO APPEARED IN THREE OTHER LITTLE HOUSE EPISODES AS A SCHOOL GIRL. THE LAST FAREWELL, HELLO AND GOODBYE AND FOR THE LOVE OF BLANCHE.

SHE HAS SUNG IN OVER TWO DOZEN COMMERCIAL JINGLES INCLUDING MCDONALDS, PAYDAY, FORD, FOLGERS AND GRANTS FARM BREAD.

While preparing for a production of "Man of La Mancha," she developed nodules on her vocal cords. Despite doctors orders, she refused to drop out of the production; and ended up with a ruptured blood vessel which also caused a vocal fold hemorrhage. She was then forced to drop out of the production after only 2 performances.

AS OF APRIL OF 2006 SHE WAS LIVING IN FLORIDA DOING VARIOUS THEATER AND VOICE OVER WORK.
