PostSubject: PATRICIA NEAL   David's Little House Star Profiles and Trivia - Page 10 EmptySat May 19, 2012 4:59 pm

Patricia Neal (January 20, 1926 – August 8, 2010)

After moving to New York, she accepted her first job as understudy in the Broadway production of The Voice of the Turtle. Next she appeared in Another Part of the Forest (1946), winning the 1947 Tony Award for Best Featured Actress in a Play, in the first ever presentation of the Tony awards.
In 1949, Neal made her film debut in John Loves Mary. That year, Ronald Reagan was her co-star in The Hasty Heart. Her appearance the same year in The Fountainhead coincided with her on-going affair with her married co-star, Gary Cooper. By 1952, Neal had starred with John Garfield in The Breaking Point, The Day the Earth Stood Still with Michael Rennie and Operation Pacific, starring John Wayne. She suffered a nervous breakdown around this time, following the end of her relationship with Cooper, and left Hollywood for New York, returning to Broadway in a revival of The Children's Hour, in 1952. She also acted in A Roomful of Roses in 1955 and as the mother in The Miracle Worker in 1959. In films, she starred in A Face in the Crowd (1957) and co-starred in Breakfast at Tiffany's (1961).

In 1963, Neal won the Academy Award for Best Actress for her performance in Hud, co-starring with Paul Newman. When the film was initially released it was predicted she would be a nominee in the supporting actress category, but when she began collecting awards, they were always for Best Leading Actress, from the New York Film Critics, the National Board of Review and a BAFTA award from the British Academy of Film and Television Arts.
Neal was reunited with John Wayne in Otto Preminger's In Harm's Way (1965), winning her second BAFTA Award. Her health took another turn in 1965, when she suffered three burst cerebral aneurysms during pregnancy, and was in a coma for three weeks. She was offered the role of Mrs. Robinson in The Graduate (1967), but turned it down, feeling she had not recovered enough.
Neal worked sparingly in the following years. She returned to the big screen in The Subject Was Roses (1968), for which she was nominated for an Academy Award.

She starred as Olivia Walton in the television movie The Homecoming: A Christmas Story (1971), which was the pilot episode for The Waltons. Her health issues did not get in the way of another strong performance, with Neal winning a Golden Globe for her performance. In a 1999 interview with the Archive of American Television, Waltons creator Earl Hamner said he and producers were unsure if Neal's health would allow her to commit to the grind of the weekly television series, which clarifies why she was not invited to reprise the role in the series (the part went to Michael Learned). Neal played a dying widowed mother trying to find a home for her three children in a moving 1975 episode of NBC's Little House on the Prairie.
In 2007, Neal worked on Silvana Vienne's innovative critically acclaimed art movie Beyond Baklava: The Fairy Tale Story of Sylvia's Baklava, appearing as herself in the portions of the documentary talking about alternative ways to end violence in the world. Also in 2007, Neal received one of two annually-presented Lifetime Achievement Awards at the SunDeis Film Festival in Waltham, Massachusetts. (Academy Award nominee Roy Scheider was the recipient of the other.)
Having won a Tony Award in their inaugural year (1947) and eventually becoming the last surviving winner from that first ceremony, Neal often appeared as a presenter in later years. Her original Tony was lost, so she was given a surprise replacement by Bill Irwin when they were about to present the 2006 Tony Award for Best Performance by a Leading Actress in a Play to Cynthia Nixon. In April 2009, Neal received a lifetime achievement award from WorldFest Houston on the occasion of the debut of her film, Flying By. Neal was a long-term actress with Philip Langner's Theatre at Sea/Sail With the Stars productions with the Theatre Guild. In her final years she would appear in a number of health-care videos, including The Healing Influence.

IT IS HARD TO CALL PATRICIA NEAL A "GUEST STAR". SHE WAS A MEGA STAR IN HER DAY AND WAS A WONDERFUL ACTRESS.

PostSubject: MARGARET WHEELER   David's Little House Star Profiles and Trivia - Page 10 EmptySun May 20, 2012 11:07 am

I am sure all you Little House fans have seen Alden's Dilemma (1982) and Wave of the Future (1981). As you remember, in Alden's Dilemma, Almanzo and John Carter go to San Francisco and Almanzo gets his pocket picked helping an elderly lady across the street. It results in them not having a dime to do anything and literally had to walk back home between hopping freight trains.
In "Wave of The Future" there was a drunken lady posing as Mrs. Sullivan during the taking of the picture for advertising Mrs. Sullivan's Kitchens. Remember the chocolate cake?

Both the pick pocket and Mrs Sullivan were played by the same actress. Margaret Wheeler.

Born in 1906, she began her career in 1966 in The Ghost and Mr. Chicken. She appeared in 32 titles in a 33 year career that ran thru 1999. Her appearances included The Jeffersons, Three's Company, Trapper John MD, Alice, Twilight Zone, Golden Girls, and two roles on Highway To Heaven in 1984-1985.
She passed away in February of 1999 at the age of 92.

PostSubject: DON COLLIER   David's Little House Star Profiles and Trivia - Page 10 EmptySun May 20, 2012 2:22 pm

Don Collier (born October 17, 1928) is an actor particularly known for his role in television westerns during the 1960s. He played U.S. Marshal Will Foreman in the 1960-1962 NBC series Outlaws, with Barton MacLane (1902–1969), Jock Gaynor (1929–1998), and Bruce Yarnell (1935–1973). He appeared as a deputy marshal to MacLane in the first season of Outlaws and was promoted to full marshal in the second season, with Yarnell as the new deputy. MacLane left the series after the first season.

Collier was born in Santa Monica, California. His only sibling, a sister, died when she was thirteen. After graduation from high school, Collier joined the United States Navy at the end of World War II. Upon his return to California, Collier obtained a part in the 1948 film Massacre River. The recipient of a football scholarship, he entered Hardin-Simmons University, a Baptist-affiliated institution in Abilene in Taylor County in West Texas. He transferred to Mormon-affiliated Brigham Young University in Provo, Utah, where he also played football.

Collier has made more than seventy film and television appearances. He starred with John Wayne, Robert Mitchum, Anthony Quinn, Dean Martin, Tom Selleck, James Arness, and Elvis Presley. After Massacre River, he acquired roles in Fort Apache (1948) and Davy Crockett, Indian Scout (1950).

Prior to his lead role in Outlaws, Collier appeared in the first seasons of both CBS's long-running Gunsmoke (1955) and NBC's powerhouse western Bonanza (1959). He guest starred in 1957 in NBC's Wagon Train with Ward Bond during its first year on the air. One of his earliest television appearances was in 1952 in the syndicated Death Valley Days anthology series later hosted by Ronald W. Reagan. He appeared in 1965 in Chuck Connors' NBC western series Branded.

From 1967-1971, he was cast as Sam Butler, the ranch foreman, in sixty-two episodes of NBC's The High Chaparral, a David Dortort series with Leif Erickson, Linda Cristal, Cameron Mitchell, Mark Slade, and Henry Darrow. In 1972, he appeared in George Peppard's NBC series Banacek and in CBS's family drama, The Waltons.

In 1976, he guest starred in the initial season of Michael Landon's NBC family western drama, Little House on the Prairie. A decade later, he starred in the first season of Landon other NBC series, Highway to Heaven, with co-star Victor French.

Collier's cowboy image enabled him to win the designation of the "Gum Fighter" for Hubba Bubba bubble gum. In 1989, he accepted the recurring role of William Tompkins in ABC's The Young Riders, based loosely on the Pony Express (1860–1861). He has also been a sidekick of Fred Imus, younger brother of Don Imus, on Sirius Satellite Radio's weekly program, Fred's Trailer Park Bash, until Fred's death on August 7, 2011.

Has been a fixture here in Tucson for years, where he currently resides.\\

Update: Collier died Monday of lung cancer in Harrodsburg, Kentucky, friend and casting director Susan McCray (Little House on the Prairie) told The Hollywood Reporter. He was 92.

PostSubject: ROBERT HOY   David's Little House Star Profiles and Trivia - Page 10 EmptySun May 20, 2012 4:02 pm

He stunt-doubled for Charles Bronson, Tony Curtis, Robert Forrester, Ross Martin, Tyrone Power, David Jansen, Telly Savalas, Charles McGraw, Jay Silverheels and Abby Lane.

With stunt credits on more than 30 television series and twice that many features, there is no doubt that Bob earned his lifetime membership in the Stuntmen's Association, of which he is a founding member. He was also a member of the Academy of Motion Pictures, Arts and Sciences, Directors Guild of America, AFTRA, and the Screen Actors Guild.

PostSubject: JOSEPHINE HUTCHINSON   David's Little House Star Profiles and Trivia - Page 10 EmptyMon May 21, 2012 12:04 pm

Josephine Hutchinson (October 12, 1903 – June 4, 1998) was an American actress.
She was born in Seattle, Washington. Her mother, Leona Roberts, was an actress best-known for her role as "Mrs. Meade" in Gone with the Wind. Through her mother's connections, Hutchinson made her film debut at the age of thirteen in The Little Princess, starring Mary Pickford. She later attended the Cornish School of Music and Drama in Seattle, and then moved to New York City where she began acting in theater.
By the late 1920s she was one of the actors able to make the transition from silent movies to talkies.

Hutchinson married Robert W. Bell, a stage director, in 1924. In 1926, she met the actress Eva Le Gallienne and became a member of Le Gallienne's Civic Repertory Theatre company. By 1927, the two women were involved in a lesbian affair, and Hutchinson and Bell, who separated in 1928, were divorced in 1930. The press quickly dubbed her Le Gallienne's shadow, a term which at the time meant lesbian. Both actresses survived the scandal in those heady days and carried on with their respective careers.

Under contract with Warner Bros., Hutchinson went to Hollywood in 1934, debuting in Happiness Ahead. She was featured on the cover of Film Weekly on August 23, 1935 and appeared in The Story of Louis Pasteur in 1936.

At Universal she played Elsa von Frankenstein in one of her most memorable roles alongside actor Basil Rathbone and Boris Karloff in Son of Frankenstein (1939). She later played "Mrs Townsend" in North by Northwest (1959) and Love is Better Than Ever, starring Elizabeth Taylor.

Hutchinson continued to work steadily through the 1970s in film, radio, and television, establishing a solid career in supporting roles. She appeared on, among other television programs, Rawhide, The Twilight Zone, Perry Mason and Gunsmoke.
• Oil for the Lamps of China (1935)
• The Story of Louis Pasteur (1935)
• Mountain Justice (1937)
• The Women Men Marry (1937)
• Son of Frankenstein (1939)
• My Son, My Son! (1940)
• Tom Brown's School Days (1940)
• Somewhere in the Night (1946)
• Cass Timberlane (1947)
• Adventure in Baltimore (1949)
• Love Is Better Than Ever (1952)
• Ruby Gentry (1952)
• North by Northwest (1959)
• Baby the Rain Must Fall (1965)
• Nevada Smith (1966)

She was also featured in many classic television episodes including four episodes of Perry Mason, The Twilight Zone's "I Sing the Body Electric", Bonanza and Little House on the Prairie. She created the role of Mamie Baldwin in The Homecoming: A Christmas Story (1971) which became the popular series The Waltons. Dorothy Stickney played her sister Emily. The Baldwin sisters were so generous by sharing their late Papa's "recipe". On the series the roles were played by Helen Kleeb and Meg Jenkins.

Her last appearance on television was on Little House
If I Should Wake Before I Die – Amy O’Hara Hearn - 1974

PostSubject: QUEENIE SMITH   David's Little House Star Profiles and Trivia - Page 10 EmptyMon May 21, 2012 3:31 pm

Queenie Smith (September 8, 1898 - August 5, 1978) was an American stage, television, and film actress.

Smith got an early start, being trained in ballet and dance and spent her teen years performing as a dancer with the Metropolitan Opera Company in operas such as Aida, La Traviata, and Faust. By the 1920s she was a star on Broadway in shows such as Helen of Troy, New York (1923), Sitting Pretty (1924), and The Street Singer (1929), and by the mid-30s had made her way into films. She starred on Broadway in George and Ira Gershwin's musical Tip-Toes (1925). She costarred in the 1936 Universal Pictures film version of Jerome Kern's Show Boat, playing Ellie May Chipley. Smith replaced stage actress Eva Puck who had starred as Chipley in the 1927 premiere and 1932 revival of Show Boat.

In 1947 she appeared in the film The Long Night and then played other character roles on film, and later, television. She was seen as Jimmy Durante's wife in The Great Rupert, and in guest shots in many television shows, including The Hardy Boys/Nancy Drew Mysteries, A.E.S. Hudson Street, Rhoda, Dawn: Portrait of a Teenage Runaway, Barney Miller, Mother, Jugs & Speed, Chico and the Man, McMillan & Wife, Love American Style, The Waltons, Here's Lucy, The Funny Side, Hawaii Five-O, The Monkees, The Odd Couple, The Love Boat, Maude and Little House on the Prairie (in a recurring role as "Mrs. Whipple").
Queenie Smith was a teacher and mentor to many a young actor. She taught at the Hollywood Professional School and was the Director for the training program at Melodyland Theater, Anaheim, California, during the 60's.

She worked right up until the year of her death; her last role being "Elsie" in the Chevy Chase/Goldie Hawn film Foul Play (1978).[1] She died of cancer a month before her 80th birthday.

PostSubject: Robert Tessier   David's Little House Star Profiles and Trivia - Page 10 EmptyMon May 21, 2012 4:22 pm

Robert Tessier was born in Lowell, Massachusetts in June of 1934.
Muscular, shaven headed actor & stuntman of Algonquin Indian descent who specialized in tough, villainous roles throughout US cinema of the 1970s and 1980s. Tessier had served time in the US Armed Forces seeing action in Korea as a paratrooper and earning both a Silver Star and a Purple Heart, and in addition was an accomplished motorcycle rider and circus stunt performer.

His movie breakthrough came at the age of 33, in the low budget Tom Laughlin biker movie The Born Losers (1967). With his menacing looks, Tessier was never short of on screen work, often turning up in several movies a year playing gang leaders, bikers & other murderous thugs. He appeared alongside 'Burt Reynolds' on three occasions in The Longest Yard (1974), Hooper (1978), and The Cannonball Run (1981). Alternately, he was equally busy on television appearing in popular shows including "Starsky and Hutch" (1975), "Magnum, P.I." (1980), "The Fall Guy" (1981) & "The A-Team" (1983). Undoubtedly, Tessier's most well remembered role was that of grinning, head butting street fighter "Jim Henry" in the Charles Bronson film Hard Times (1975).

He appeared in over 63 movies and TV shows before his death in October of 1990 from Cancer. His nickname was CUEBALL. He was an expert cabinet maker who often made pieces for his co-stars.

The musical score in this Little House, was in my opinion, one of David Rose's finest. A moving story about human beings rising to their finest in a time of need, no matter what the color of their skin.
