- While he had a short life and very short film career, sleekly handsome actor Richard Hart, with his dark and virile looks, demonstrated much promise in those few years, especially on Broadway and in TV's "Golden Age." It all ended quickly, however, with his sudden demise at age 35.
He was born Richard Comstock Hart, in Providence, Rhode Island, on April 14, 1915, the middle child of a prominent local lawyer, Henry Clay Hart. His grandfather, Richard Comstock, was also a lawyer. Following education at the Quaker-run preparatory Moses Brown School, he majored in English and psychology upon entering Brown University. After attaining his degree, his interest changed and he took journalism classes and had a brief job at Gorham, the silver company, before pursuing acting.
A summer stock job in nearby Tiverton, Rhode Island, decided things for Hart, and he moved to New York City to pursue a professional stage career. Wife (and high school sweetheart) Eugenia did not adjust to the Manhattan life style and returned to Providence with son Christopher in tow. They abruptly divorced. Following his Broadway debut in "Pillar to Post" in December of 1943, he went out on tour with Constance Bennett in "Without Love." A superb performance in a repertory production of "Dark of the Moon" led to his being cast in the Broadway version, winning a Theatre World Award in the process, and continuing on the national tour. He met second wife, theatre actress Louise Valery, during the run of the show.
MGM saw the dark-haired actor with the trimmed mustache as potential leading man material after seeing his stage success, and with no film training at all, Richard was signed and given the chance to perform in three prominent movies. In Desire Me (1947) he replaced Robert Montgomery as the man who takes Robert Mitchum away from Greer Garson. In Green Dolphin Street (1947) he was the love interest of both Lana Turner and Donna Reed. And in B.F.'s Daughter (1948) he loses Barbara Stanwyck to Van Heflin. A terrible experience in Desire Me (1947) (numerous rewrites, retakes, added scenes and director changes) disillusioned Hart in pursuing career film work. Not helping were his rather diffident performances on film and a burgeoning alcohol problem.
Following a dismal MGM loan-out opposite Arlene Dahl in Reign of Terror (1949) [aka The Black Book], Hart asked for a release from his contract. Returning to New York, he replaced Sam Wanamaker in the 1949 production of "Goodbye, My Fancy" and co-starred with Charlton Heston and Coleen Gray in the short-lived "Leaf and Bough", which closed the next day. He then enjoyed a major success in "The Happy Time" with Eva Gabor, Leora Dana and Claude Dauphin the following year.
Hart also found a valuable medium in TV, appearing in numerous live productions of Fireside Theatre, NBC Presents, Ford Theatre Hour and Studio One. He also returned to his "Dark of the Moon" stage success on TV for a Philco-Goodyear Television Playhouse presentation and appeared in such classics as "Hedda Gabler" and "Julius Caesar" (as Mark Antony). In 1950 he became the first Ellery Queen on TV, appearing in the low-budget Dumont series "The Adventures of Ellery Queen."
On January 2, 1951, Hart died suddenly of a coronary occlusion, possibly triggered by his prodigious alcohol intake. He was divorced once and estranged from his second wife at the time he died. He left a son, Christopher, from his first marriage and two daughters from his second, and there is a debate about another possible son, Richard Lee Hart, from an out-of-marriage relationship with Phyllis Buswell. - Ruth Shepley was born on 29 May 1892 in Providence, Rhode Island, USA.

- Dwight Fiske was given his start in Paris, playing a benefit for Marie Dressler. He decided to eschew a musical education to be a performer. Dwight Fiske was unrivaled as singer of risqué songs, entirely by himself except for a few with lyrics by Dawn Powell. A collection of his lyrics, entitled "Without Music," was published in 1933. The book is dedicated to Dawn Powell and has a forward by Robert Benchley. He was mostly bald and resembled an elegant statesman more than a lounge entertainer in New York, London and Paris. His bitchy, but never smutty songs, earned him the nickname of "King Leer," even though Robert Benchley said that Fiske never "mugged."
His records were quite popular, but only affordable to his starched shirt crowd. They were recorded and pressed by RCA-Victor from 1933 to 1936, and issued on the 36000 series (12" inch) with his own black and silver label stating "FISKANA." The records were sold "under the counter" in swanky music stores such as Liberty Music Shop, Schirmer, and Colony. Later in the decade his records were made on the Liberty Music Shop and Gala label. He worked in exclusive restaurants and lounges continuously during the Great Depression. He was featured for many years at the Savoy-Plaza in Manhattan. His face adorned large print ads in sophisticated magazines such as "Vanity Fair," "Stage," "New Yorker" and others. He was such a society fixture, his name appeared in at least one New Yorker cartoon. Although there were a few other society singers of naughty songs, such as Bruz Fletcher (1907-1941), they never achieved the status of Dwight Fiske.
Today his records may cause and arched brow or a puzzled look on the listener's face, because the dialogue is so topical, elitist and regional, there is nobody alive who could possibly understand all of the references. However, his diction, emphasis and showmanship come through as well as ever. - Actor

- Born in Providence, Rhode Island, cartoonist Jimmy Hatlo is most famous for his cartoon strip "Little Iodine", which was a spin-off from another of his comic strips, "They'll Do It Every Time". Originally a sports cartoonist for the San Francisco Call-Bulletin, he left that field in 1929 and began the strip "They'll Do It Every Time". In 1936 King Features Syndicate picked it up for national syndication and it quickly became a reader favorite. Hatlo was somewhat unusual for cartoonists in that he would use suggestions for subjects that were sent to him by readers, and when he did he let his readers know with his signature "A Tip of the Hatlo Hat to . . ." in the lower right-hand corner of the strip. He won several awards from national cartoonists' organizations for his work. His strip "Little Iodine" was begun in 1943 as a spin-off from "They'll Do It", and it proved so popular that it spawned a series of comic books that lasted for almost 15 years and even a movie (Little Iodine (1946)).
Hatlo died in Carmel-by-the-Sea, California, in 1963. - Actress

The only career Nelson Eddy ever considered was singing. His parents, Isabel (Kendrick) and William Darius Eddy, were singers, his grandparents were musicians. Unable to afford a teacher, he learned by imitating opera recordings. At age 14 he worked as a telephone operator in a Philadelphia iron foundry. He sold newspaper advertising and performed in amateur musicals. Dr. Edouard Lippe coached him and loaned him the money to study in Dresden and Paris. He gave his first concert recital in 1928 in Philadelphia. In 1933 he did 18 encores for an audience that included an assistant to MGM studio chief Louis B. Mayer, who signed him to a seven-year contract. After MGM acting lessons and initial trials, his first real success came as the Yankee scout to Jeanette MacDonald's French princess in Naughty Marietta (1935), a huge box-office success made on a small budget. Eddy and MacDonald were paired twice more (Rose-Marie (1936), Maytime (1937)) when metropolitan Opera star Grace Moore was unavailable; they became an institution. Their last work together was in 1942. Critics nearly always panned his acting. He did have a large radio following (his theme song: "Short'nin Bread"). In 1959 Eddy and MacDonald issued a recording of their movie hits which sold well. In 1953 he had a fairly successful nightclub routine with Gale Sherwood which ran until his death in 1967. He and his wife Anne Denitz had no children.- Born in Providence, Rhode Island, in 1918, Edwin O'Connor spent his early life in Woonsocket and, from La Salle Academy in Providence, went on to the University of Notre Dame. After graduation in 1939, he worked as a radio announcer. During World War II, he served in the Coast Guard for three years, then went to Boston to work as a writer-producer for the Yankee Network. One year later, in 1946, he left radio and became a free-lance writer. In that year he sold his first magazine piece, a satire on radio, to the Atlantic Monthly; a year later he sold his first short story to the same magazine.
During the next decade, he wrote more articles and short stories, contributed television columns to two Boston newspapers and produced two novels, The Oracle (1951) and The Last Hurrah (1956). Three other novels followed: The Edge of Sadness (1961), I Was Dancing (1964) and All in the Family (1966). The Edge of Sadness won the Pulitzer Prize. Mr. O'Connor died in Boston on March 23, 1968, four months before his fiftieth birthday. Arthur Schlesinger, Jr., said of O'Connor's books, "He left behind an ironic chronicle of a vital part of American society- a chronicle that . . . future historians must consult to understand a

He died on 20 February 1973 in Los Angeles, California, USA.- George Macready--the name probably does not ring any bells for most but the voice would be unmistakable. He attended and graduated from Brown University and had a short stint as a New York newspaperman, but became interested in acting on the advice of colorful Polish émigré classical stage director Richard Boleslawski, who would go on to Hollywood to direct some notable and important films, including Rasputin and the Empress (1932)--the only film in which siblings John Barrymore, Ethel Barrymore and Lionel Barrymore appeared together--and Clive of India (1935) with Ronald Colman. Perhaps acting was meant for Macready all along--he claimed that he was descended from 19th-century Shakespearean actor William Macready.
In 1926 Macready made his Broadway debut in "The Scarlet Letter". His Broadway career would extend to 1958, entailing 15 plays--mainly dramas but also some comedies--with the lion's share of roles in the 1930s. His Shakespearean run included the lead as Benedick in "Much Ado About Nothing" (1927), "Macbeth" (1928) and "Romeo and Juliet" (1934), with Broadway legend Katharine Cornell. He co-starred with her again in "The Barretts of Wimpole Street" and with with Helen Hayes in "Victoria Regina" twice (1936 and 1937).
Macready's aquiline features coupled with distinctive high-brow bottom-voiced diction and superior, nose-in-the-air delivery that could be quickly tinged with a gothic menace made him perfect as the cultured bad guy. Added to his demeanor was a significant curved scar on his right cheek, remnant of a car accident in about 1919--better PR that it was a saber slash wound from his dueling days as a youth. He did not turn to films until 1942 and did not weigh-in fully committed until 1944, with a host of both well-crafted and just fair movies until the end of World War II. When he went all in, though, he excelled as strong-willed authoritarian and ambitious, murderous--but well-bred--villains. Among his better roles in that period were in The Seventh Cross (1944), The Missing Juror (1944), Counter-Attack (1945) and My Name Is Julia Ross (1945) with a young Nina Foch. Averaging six or more films per year throughout the 1940s, he appeared not only in dramas and thrillers, but also period pieces and even some westerns. His standout role, however--and probably the one he is best remembered for--was the silver-haired, dark-suited and mysteriously rich Ballin Mundson in Gilda (1946), who malevolently inserted himself into the lives of smoldering Rita Hayworth and moody Glenn Ford.
By the early 1950s he had sampled the waters of early TV. He had many appearances on such anthology series as Four Star Playhouse (1952), The Ford Television Theatre (1952) and Alfred Hitchcock Presents (1955), among others. He became a familiar presence in episodic TV series beginning in 1954. He made the rounds of most of the hit shows of the period, including a slew of westerns, including such obscure series as The Texan (1958) and The Rough Riders (1958). He was familiar to viewers of crime dramas--such as Perry Mason (1957)--and such classic sci-fi and horror series as Thriller (1960), The Outer Limits (1963) and Night Gallery (1969). He did some 200 TV roles altogether, but still continued his film appearances. He assayed what many consider his best role as the ambitious French Gen. Paul Mireau, a fanatic and martinet whose lust for fame and glory leads to the deaths of hundreds of French soldiers in a senseless frontal attack on heavily fortified German lines in Stanley Kubrick classic antiwar film Paths of Glory (1957). Macready's performance stood out in a film brimming with standout performances, from such veterans as Kirk Douglas, Adolphe Menjou, Ralph Meeker and Timothy Carey. The film was even more striking when it turns out that it was based on a true incident.
Macready stayed busy into the 1960s, mainly in TV roles. He had a three-year run as Martin Peyton in the hit series Peyton Place (1964), the first prime-time soap opera and a launching pad for many a young rising star of the time. His film roles became fewer, but there were some good ones--the Yul Brynner adventure period piece Taras Bulba (1962) and a meaty role as an advisor to US Prlesident Fredric March attempting to stop a coup by a right-wing general played by Burt Lancaster in the gripping Seven Days in May (1964). His next-to-last film appearance was as a very human Cordell Hull, Secretary of State, in Universal's splashy, big-budget but somewhat uneven story of Pearl Harbor, Tora! Tora! Tora! (1970).
Another role that stands out in his career is a one-in-a-kind film which you would not expect to find George Macready--Blake Edwards' uproarious comedy -The Great Race (1965) -. Macready shined in one of the film's several subplots, this one a spoof of the "Ruritanian" chestnut "The Prisoner of Zenda", in which the racers find themselves in the middle of palace intrigue in a small European monarchy. Macready played a general trying to stave off a coup by using Professor Fate (Jack Lemmon, who is a double for the drunken ruler. Macready held his own with such comedy veterans as Lemmon, Tony Curtis, Natalie Wood and a host of others. To top it of, Macready gets involved in one of the great pie fights in film history, and takes one right in the kisser!
In real life George Macready was as cultured as he appeared to be on-screen. He was a well-regarded connoisseur of art, and he and a fellow art devotee--and longtime friend--Vincent Price, opened a very successful Los Angeles art gallery together during World War II. As far as the villain roles went, Macready was grateful for the depth they allowed him through his years as both film and television actor. "I like heavies," he once said, and to that he added with a philosophic twinkle, "I think there's a little bit of evil in all of us." - Additional Crew
