| Subject: ERIK HOLLAND Sun Sep 09, 2012 1:56 pm | |
| Eric Holland was born Olav Roger Øvregård 18th May 1933 in Sandnes, Norway. Fearing the rise of fascism, the Øvregård family fled their native Norway when Eric was just a child. They eventually settled in New York where he went to school and eventually college. Holland took a keen interest in acting while at college and performed in numerous amateur productions. After graduation he decided to pursue a career as a full time actor. His first screen acting role was in the 1962 TV pilot Surftide 77. While the pilot picked up good ratings, it was not developed in to a full series. Though disappointed that Surftide was not picked up, he carried on working part time and attending acting and continuing with ongoing auditions. Late in 1962 he was caste in a role for the G.E. Truman show, Code Name: Christopher: Part 1 and 2. While not a major role, it earned him screen time and much needed experience. Through much of 1963 and 64 he continued his acting classes, while working part time. With his studies complete, he was able to switch to focusing on more auditions and this led to roles over the next few years on such shows as The Fugitive, 12 O'clock High, Voyage to the Bottom of the Sea, The Man from U.N.C.L.E., Laredo, The Invaders and Mission Impossible. By the beginning of the 70's Holland had built up a respectable list of screen credits, and he began branching out in to stage work. It was during this time that he met and married his wife Vicky. Throughout the 70's, 80's and early 90's Holland continued to build a reputation as a solid character actor on both stage and screen. He made numerous guest appearances on such shows as Wonder Woman, Barnaby Jones, the Man From Atlantis, the Bionic Woman, Galactica 80, Father Murphy, Cheers, The Fall Guy, Dallas, Falcon Crest, MacGyver and Baywatch. In 1994 Holland was caste in the role of Professor Langford in the movie Stargate, the father of Catherine Langford who would go on to feature in the Stargate SG1 series. Holland worked sporadically throughout the late 90's appearing in the movies Titanic and The Minus Man and the TV series The Practice. With his health beginning to fail, he went in to semi-retirement following an appearance in The West Wing. He came out of retirement to appear in the movie Formosa in 2005. Following the completion of filming, Holland returned to his retirement. He was in 83 titles from 1962 - 2005. He Appeared In One Little House Episode Look Back To Yesterday – 1983 – Gunnar LindstromAt The Town Meeting "Albert, do you REALLY think you are old enough to know what love is?" "I must be Pa. I love you, I have for a long time."

| Subject: Movie Blood Mon Sep 10, 2012 11:01 am | |
| Ever Wonder What The Blood Was Made of That Matt Had On Him In Look Back To Yesterday? Water Corn syrup (golden syrup) Red, blue, and green food coloring Flour, cornstarch, chocolate syrup, or maple syrup Make the basic mix. Combine one part water with three parts corn syrup (known as golden syrup in the UK). Add drops red food coloring gradually and mix gently by stirring. Continue adding drops until the shade resembles that of real blood (always err on the side of adding less, as it's easier to add more). Add a small amount of blue or green food coloring to achieve a more realistic shade. (Arterial blood is bright red, while venous blood is a dark maroon). "Albert, do you REALLY think you are old enough to know what love is?" "I must be Pa. I love you, I have for a long time."

| That's very interesting info, Dave! I always assumed it was ketchup! This scene breaks my heart. However, even with the fake "blood" running out of his nose, he manages to look just gorgeous. What a guy! (Don't mind me, lol). You know, I've always wanted to meet him to tell him what an amazing actor I think he is; how he's moved me with his performances, etc. However...I know if that moment should ever come (better chance of winning the lottery!), I would probably be totally quiet, staring at him with a goofy face (sort of like this ) and I would be so nervous I'd forget everything I want to say! lol | |

| Subject: TROY MELTON Tue Sep 11, 2012 10:44 am | |
| During the golden days of TV westerns, Troy Melton was a prolific stuntman and actor on such early gems as “Rough Riders”, “Annie Oakley”, “Kit Carson”, “Jim Bowie”, “Lone Ranger”, “Zane Grey Theatre”, “Maverick”, “Bonanza”, “Rifleman”, “Wanted Dead or Alive”, “Laredo”, “Whispering Smith”, “Wyatt Earp”, “Klondike”, “Gene Autry”, “Roy Rogers” (where he can often be spotted as a badguy and sometimes double for Roy), “Boston Blackie”, “Peter Gunn”, “Range Rider” and “Buffalo Bill Jr.”. While working on dozens of “Cisco Kid” episodes Troy would more often than not be doubling for Duncan Renaldo with Bill Catching doubling Leo Carrillo. When Robert Conrad’s action filled show, “The Wild Wild West”, debuted on CBS there were a core group of stuntmen Conrad felt comfortable working with as he did almost all of his own stunts. Nearly all the action you see in the first year or so was done by Whitey Hughes, Bill Catching, Fred Stromsoe, Al Wyatt, Troy, and Robert Herron doubling for Ross Martin. Troy was an all around stuntman but his specialty was the rough and tumble fights. During a career that spanned four decades Troy appeared in “Blazing Saddles”, “Magnum Force”, “Dirty Harry”, “Every Which Way But Loose”, “The Fall Guy”, “Rawhide”, “Big Valley”, “Virginian”, “Wagon “Train”, “Davy Crockett”, “Gunsmoke”, “Have Gun Will Travel”, “Sea Hunt”, “How The West Was Won” and “Bat Masterson”. Troy was born in Jackson, TN, in March of 1921 and migrated with his family to L.A. during the Great Depression. After serving in the Army Air Corps during WWII, Melton returned to L.A. and found sporadic work as an actor before embarking on a 50 year stunt career that sadly ended when he succumbed to cancer November 15, 1995. He was 74. Besides his film career Troy was an avid golfer and restaurateur. He owned the Playboy Restaurant on Melrose Avenue in Hollywood, located right next door to Paramount. It was frequented by himself and nearly all the Paramount employees for years. After a 26 year run, Troy sold the land to Paramount in 1988 . He acted and did stunt work in over 114 titles in a fifty year career that lasted from 1941 to 1991. He was in four Little House Episodes. You may remember him best as the stagecoach driver that was killed in “The Third Miracle”. He was also on 3 episodes of Father Murphy and 21 episodes of Bonanza.To See The Light – 1980 – Man The Third Miracle – 1979 – Stage Driver The Aftermath – 1977 – Ned Watkins The Runaway Caboose – 1976 – Homer GreenwoodIn "The Third Miracle" Stagecoach Driver"Albert, do you REALLY think you are old enough to know what love is?"

| Subject: PAUL BRINEGAR Wed Sep 12, 2012 10:56 am | |
| Paul Brinegar was born December 19, 1917, in Tucumcari, New Mexico. When he was a small child, the family relocated to Alamagordo, then Las Cruces, and finally to Santa Fe, where Paul started acting in high school plays. After he graduated in 1935, Brinegar migrated to Pasadena, California, where he attended Pasadena Junior College, studying drama, literature and art. In college, his first stage success was in the role of Andy Hardy, and of that he remarked, ”...before it was done by Mickey Rooney!” Brinegar then took a break from acting and served for four years in the South Pacific as a chief radioman in the Navy during World War II. After the war, he supported himself as a radio repairman, while taking bit parts in movies. In 1948, he made his feature film debut in Larceny. From there, he launched what would become a steady film career, which only slowed down in the late 1950s, after he began appearing regularly on television. As a character actor of both films and television, Paul Brinegar specialized in playing feisty, grizzled cowboy sidekicks. Although he is probably best known for his role on the CBS series Rawhide from 1959 to 1966, Brinegar made over 100 appearances between 1946 and 1994, appearing in many popular Western films. Some memorable roles include the barman character in Clint Eastwood’s High Plains Drifter in 1973, and in 1969, he appeared in Charro! starring Elvis Presley. He was also known for playing Lamar Pettybone on the early 1980s television series Matt Houston. But Brinegar’s talents were not limited to the Western genre, as he was also seen in character roles in highly rated TV series such as Alfred Hitchcock Presents, Dragnet, The Loretta Young Show, The George Burns Comedy Theatre, and Racket Squad. His first big break in TV came when he was cast as the mayor of Dodge City in the Wyatt Earp series starring Hugh O’Brian. Brinegar said, “After that series, it just opened up for me.” He passed away in March of 1995 in Los Angeles, Ca. He was 77. He was in a ton of television productions in the early days of television. Also appeared on Bonanza. He Was in One Episode of Little House The Hunters – 1976 – Glover Shown Here Opposite Johnny CrawfordAs "Wishbone" Rawhide TV Series "Albert, do you REALLY think you are old enough to know what love is?" "I must be Pa. I love you, I have for a long time." | |

| Subject: MALCOLM ATTERBURY Fri Sep 14, 2012 10:50 am | |
| Birth Name Malcolm Macleod Jr. Malcolm Atterbury was born into a wealthy family in February of 1907 in Philadelphia, Pa. His father was president of the Pennsylvania Railroad - but he himself had no desire to go into the family business. He had always wanted to be an actor, and to that end got himself a job managing a radio station. From there he went into vaudeville, then into stage work in both musicals and dramas, gaining a reputation as a solid and reliable stage actor. He made his film debut in Dragnet (1954). Although he soon became a busy supporting actor in films, he still kept his hand in the theater world; he owned two theaters in upstate New York. A versatile actor, he could play anything from a priest to a senator to a hotel clerk to a gunfighter to a cranky, cantankerous old codger. His last film was Emperor of the North (1973). From 1954 to 1979 he appeared in over 150 productions including two episodes of Bonanza. He died in Beverly Hills of natural causes in 1992 at the age of 85. His last appearance before a camera was in Little House on The Prairie as Brewster Davenport in “Angry Heart” in 1979. Grandfather of Tod. In The Movie "The Birds" 1963"Albert, do you REALLY think you are old enough to know what love is?" "I must be Pa. I love you, I have for a long time." | |

| Subject: LILI VALENTY Sun Sep 16, 2012 1:02 pm | |
| Lili Valenty born in August of 1900 in Lodz, Poland, appeared in a dozen or so Broadway plays in the 30s, 40s and 50s, then went on to enliven a number of routine on-camera projects in her twilight years. Born at the turn of the century, she received her start on the German stage where she became a star. In the early 1930s she emigrated to America and tried to parlay her European success into stardom here. Although she fell quite short, she did launch a moderately successful career on both radio and the Broadway stage. Some of her NY theater productions included "Bitter Stream" (her debut) 1936, "Cue for Passion" (1940), "The Land Is Bright" (1941), "Sky Drift" (1945), and "Now I Lay Me Down to Sleep" (1950). In 1955 she was a replacement in the role of Baroness Livenbaum in the successful Broadway production of "Anastasia" starring Viveca Lindfors and Eugenie Leontovich, which later went on tour. Lili later transitioned into the film and TV mediums, predominantly in decorative fluff unworthy of her talents. Although she made her film debut in support of Anna Magnani in the melodrama Wild Is the Wind (1957), she continued rather inauspiciously from there with a minor dowager role in Can-Can (1960), and typical ethnic parts in The Story of Ruth (1960), the Troy Donahue / Suzanne Pleshette romantic excursion Rome Adventure (1962), one of Elvis Presley's weaker vehicles Girls! Girls! Girls! (1962), and the Jayne Mansfield "comedy" It Happened in Athens (1962). Sometimes billed as "Lili Valenti", she appeared sparingly after this as various mamas, madames, gypsies, nuns, ballet teachers, and the like on episodic TV. She died in Los Angeles in 1987 at age 86 and left no survivors. She was in fifty productions from 1950 thru 1985 including six episodes of Bonanza. Was In One Episode of Little House. You will probably remember her as the Gypsy woman Caroline went to see regarding the upcoming birth of her child.

| Subject: ALLAN RICH Mon Sep 17, 2012 12:14 pm | |
| Allan Rich, born Benjamin Norman Schultz in February of 1926, is one of the busiest and most recognizable character actors, in Hollywood today, working in all arenas - stage, film and on the small screen. Through 2006, Allan had been featured in "My Sexiest Year," opposite Frances Fisher and Frankie Muniz, and been interviewed for the documentary "Troupers." In 2005 he appeared in "Rise" with Lucy Liu and Michael Chiklis, "Lies & Alibis" with Steve Coogan and Rebecca Romijn, and "The Man in the Chair," with Christopher Plummer. Independent features include "The Burial Society" with David Paymer, "The Dog Walker," and "Intoxicating" with John Savage. Other feature film credits include Steven Speilberg's "Amistad," "Disclosure" (as Demi Moore's attorney), and Robert Redford's "Quiz Show." Critic Gary Franklin hailed his performance as Robert Kintner, President of NBC, `one of the Top Five of the Year.' Additional notable performances include the role of Dr. Belfonte, opposite Robin Williams in "Jack," and Bill Adolphe (Halle Berry's lawyer) in "A Rich Man's Wife." Recent television credits include "Curb Your Enthusiasm" as a holocaust `Survivor,' "Living With Fran," "NYPD Blue," "Judging Amy," "CSI," and "The Division." Allan began his distinguished acting career as a teenager in New York, working with immortals such as Edward G. Robinson, Claude Raines, Ralph Bellamy, Jack Palance, Kim Hunter, Milton Berle, and Henry Fonda. He was enjoying the fruits of his labor until, without warning, his dreams were shattered when the McCarthy Era fell upon the nation and Allan was caught up in the `Red Scare' and blacklisted. With no income, a family to support and with little training outside of the acting profession, Rich cajoled his way onto Wall Street. After five years of buying and selling, he decided to open his own brokerage firm and with fervor, began to collect fine art. With the same drive and determination to master yet another field of endeavor, he soon became an expert in modern art, opening Allan Rich Galleries on Madison Avenue, where he began selling major paintings to important collectors and publishing lithographs of Miro, Calder, and Salvador Dali. His experience with Dali, in 1970, led him to co-write a screenplay "Memories of Surrealism." Despite his enormous success outside of the entertainment field, Rich, separated from his professional passion, returned to the stage in Ron Ribman's "Journey of the Fifth Horse," with a young Dustin Hoffman. He re-launched his film career in 1973 playing the D.A. in "Serpico" with Al Pacino. One of his main scenes was shown on the Academy Awards. Rich took out ads in the trades and received one call from John Crosby at ICM, who helped reestablished his reputation and went on to appear in more than 75 television shows, MOWs and 68 features that also include "Frances, "Eating Raoul," and "Guilty By Suspicion." After years of teaching, Allan has developed his own acting technique, his book A Leap From the Method was published in 2011 by Author House. Some of his more famous students include Sharon Stone, Jamie Lee Curtis, Rene Russo, Donna Dixon, Jack Scalia, Alan Thicke and Larry Miller.In addition, in 1994, Rich co-founded We Care About Kids, a non-profit organization that produces live action educational short films for middle and high school youths on socially relevant topics and received praise for its efforts from President Clinton, Senator Diane Feinstein, former Speaker of the House, Richard Gephardt, former Governor Gray Davis and poet Maya Angelou. He appeared in over 123 titles from 1963 thru 2011. Update: Allan Rich died August 22, 2020 (age 94) in Englewood, New Jersey, USAHe Was in One Little House Episode The Inheritance – 1978 – As Otto Ripley The Annoying Reporter: Critic's Comment on Allan Rich's Book"His new acting book - A Leap From The Method: An Organic Approach To Acting gives aspiring actors the ability to “judge their own work.” It is a clear, simple, straightforward guide to acting and show business. Rich enjoyably took us along his life's journey and walked us through his own experiences and growths as an actor as well as a person. In addition, he illustrated how easy it is for actors to make things difficult when it’s unnecessary to do so". "Albert, do you REALLY think you are old enough to know what love is?" "I must be Pa. I love you, I have for a long time."

He had roles in Gunsmoke several times, including the episode "No Where to Run" (1968). He also guest starred in several episodes of the original Mission: Impossible, including one with Leonard Nimoy, and a two-part episode of Buck Rogers in the 25th Century. Lenard also played a lead role in the movie Noon Sunday filmed on Guam with costars Keye Luke, TV series star John Russell from Lawman, and character actor Stacy Harris. In 1993, he and fellow Star Trek actor Walter Koenig toured in a production of The Boys in Autumn.

Thought I would share it....... http://www.the-signal.com/section/36/article/70957/ Interesting link, and I liked when he said : "..I see no reason to retire...", but I can't just remember him in Little House.
