He had that same genuine likability factor, owned that same trademark lantern jaw and was just as appealing and gifted as his older brother, Dick Van Dyke, but, for decades, Jerry Van Dyke bore the brunt of his brother's overwhelming shadow.
Six years younger than brother Dick, the comic actor was born on July 27, 1931, in Danville, Illinois. Raised there, the crew cut blond showed an aptitude for clowning in high school. His stand-up comedy venues first took the form of dives and strip clubs throughout the Deep South in which his banjo-playing became an intricate part of the routine. At one point, Jerry was a regular on the Playboy club circuit. He then set his sights on the top showrooms in Las Vegas, Lake Tahoe and Atlantic City and became a dependable opening act.
Jerry's early career should have been rightfully interrupted when he joined the Air Force in 1952. He, instead, kept the troops laughing by performing in Special Services shows. Winning a military talent contest actually earned him a couple of appearances on The Ed Sullivan Show (1948) (aka "The Ed Sullivan Show") and resulting TV exposure. Following his tour of duty, he nabbed variety appearances and a regular comic relief role on The Judy Garland Show (1963). He found comic acting parts as well on TV. Like brother Dick, who was a huge TV star by this time, Jerry also did a stint emceeing a game show. In Jerry's case, it was Picture This (1963).
Ever the hapless klutz and happy-go-lucky stammerer, Jerry built up his TV reputation in the early 60s. He turned down the title role in Gilligan's Island (1964), which he rightfully deemed inane, but instead chose the equally silly My Mother the Car (1965). It proved to be a detrimental career move. While "Gilligan" became a surprise hit that still runs in syndication four decades later, Jerry had to live down starring in one of the most lambasted sitcoms of all time. Truthfully, the two shows were on an equal (sub)par with each other. It was just a cruel luck of the draw that Jerry ended up biting the bullet while Gilligan's Bob Denver found cult celebrity. Jerry's subsequent two series were also one seasoners with Accidental Family (1967), a sitcom in which he more or less played himself (a nightclub comedian), and Headmaster (1970), a drama starring Andy Griffith in which he played a physical education coach. Neither did much for his career. A promising co-star role with Griffith in the film Angel in My Pocket (1969) also went nowhere. Over the years, Jerry has appeared as a guest star on a number of brother Dick's shows, including the classic The Dick Van Dyke Show (1961) in which he played, of course, Dick's brother.
The genially dim character "George Utley" on Bob Newhart's 1980s series was originally created for Jerry but Tom Poston assumed the part. Good fortune finally smiled on Jerry when he won the hapless role of "Luther Van Dam", a role that capped his long career, on Coach (1989). He earned four consecutive Emmy nominations and a steady paycheck for eight seasons. His seesaw struggle and survival after nearly five decades truly paid off this time, and only proves his love for the business.
Nearing the millennium, Jerry was seen frequently on the smaller screen. In addition to guesting on such shows as "The New Addams Family," "The District," "Diagnosis Murder," "My Name Is Earl," "Committed" and "Raising Hope," the veteran actor played the regular roles as grandpa types in the sitcom fantasies Teen Angel (1997) and You Wish (1997); had the recurring grandparent role of Big Jimmy Hughes in the comedy series Yes, Dear (2000) and ended his career as a grandpa in the established sitcom The Middle (2009) starring Patricia Heaton and Neil Flynn.
In later years, Jerry spent much of his time at a ranch in Arkansas where he lived with his second wife, the former Shirley Jones (not the singer/actress), and raised cattle. Tragedy struck in 1991 when one of his three children, Kelly Van Dyke, a substance abuser, took her own life. On the sly, one could also find Jerry at the poker table as part of ESPN tournaments. He died in Arkansas on January 5, 2018, aged 86.- Rick Zumwalt was born on 24 September 1951 in St. Louis, Missouri, USA. He was an actor, known for Over the Top (1987), Batman Returns (1992) and The Presidio (1988). He died on 19 March 2003 in Desert Hot Springs, California, USA.

Tall, provocative actress Joan Woodbury (aka Nana Martinez) was born Joanne Elmer Woodbury in Los Angeles, California, on December 17, 1915. Of Danish, English and Indian heritage, she was educated for seven years in a convent school. Trained in dance, she was already performing in her mid-teens by the time she graduated from Hollywood High School. A solo dancer at one point with the Agua Caliente dance company, she broke into films at age 19, her exotic beauty being her "in" to the picture business.
For many years Joan was relegated to atmospheric bit parts as assorted dancing girls, barmaids, secretaries and the like. Once she progressed to co-starring roles, her characters often provided a foreign allure (Hispanic, French, Asian) playing femmes with such desirous names as Lolita, Dolores and Toto. She managed to churn out a feisty score of ladies and girlfriends for about a decade and a half (1934-49).
Woodbury was featured in a number of "Charlie Chan" entries of the 1930s, particularly Charlie Chan on Broadway (1937) wherein she turned heads performing a very sultry dance routine. A resilient western player as well, she appeared opposite a number of cowboy heroes including William Boyd when she played her memorable role as Dolores in The Eagle's Brood (1935). Her first co-starring role, in fact, came opposite sagebrush star Tim McCoy (in a dual role) in Bulldog Courage (1935). One of her finest moments in the limelight has to be her titular role in the Columbia serial Brenda Starr, Reporter (1945), in which she gave a fine, spirited performance as the intrepid heroine.
After retiring from films in the 1960s, Woodbury became a producer/director of grand and light operas for the Redlands (California) Bowl. Married twice -- to actor/producer Henry Wilcoxon and then actor Ray Mitchell -- Joan and her second husband subsequently co-founded the Palm Springs-based Valley Players Guild, staging plays that featured other veteran performers.
She died of a respiratory ailment in 1989, aged 73, and was survived by her three children by her first marriage to Wilcoxon.- Robert Anderson was born on 12 July 1920 in Casey Township, North Dakota, USA.

Noel Langley was a South African novelist, playwright, screenwriter, and film director. He became a naturalized citizen of the United States in 1961.
Langley was born on December 25, 1911 in Durban, South Africa. His parents were Aubrey Samuel Langley and Dora Agnes Allison. Aubrey served as the headmaster of Durban High School, and had a reputation as a strict disciplinarian and rugby football enthusiast. Noel was a sickly child with an interest in the in the arts. He had a strained relationship with Aubrey, who considered him a disappointment.
Noel attended Durban High School, and graduated in 1930. He next attended the University of Natal, and graduated in 1934. During his college years Langley started writing theatrical plays. His first success was the play "Queer Cargo" (1932), which was produced by the Durban Repertory Theatre in 1932. He migrated to the United Kingdom in 1934, and soon managed to have "Queer Cargo" produced there by Charles Wyndham (1837-1919), the proprietor of Wyndham's Theatre in London. The play run there for 7 months.
Noel started writing plays for the West End theaters. Meanwhile he also started publishing novels. His first novel was the historical satire "Cage Me a Peacock" (1935), set in ancient Rome. It was followed by the novel "There's a Porpoise Close Behind Us", and the children's novel "The Tale of the Land of Green Ginger" (1937) about the son of Aladdin.
Langley found work as a screenwriter for British films. One of his first works being the screenplay of the spy thriller "Secret of Stamboul" (1936), concerning plots for a coup in then modern Istanbul (Constantinople). In 1937, Langley signed a 7-years-long contract with the American film studio Metro-Goldwyn-Mayer, and moved to Hollywood.
Langley's first American film was the musical "Mayday" (1937), an adaptation of an operetta by Sigmund Romberg (1887-1951). Having some experience as a children's writer, Langley was chosen as a screenwriter for the fantasy film "The Wizard of Oz" (1939). It was an adaptation of a children's novel by Lyman Frank Baum (1856-1919). Langley was credited with attempting to correct the "cutesy and oozy" ideas of his fellow screenwriters. He reportedly disliked the final version of the film, though he conceded that it was not a bad film.
His film career was interrupted by World War II, as Langley joined the Royal Canadian Navy. Following his war service, Langley mainly worked on British films. He directed three films during the 1950s. His last screenwriting credit was for the fantasy comedy "Snow White and the Three Stooges" (1961), featuring the comedy trio of Moe Howard (1897-1975), Larry Fine (1902-1975), and Joe DeRita (1909-1993).
From the 1950s onward, Langley contributed scripts for television series. He continued to write novels and plays. He also wrote a number of short stories, which were published by the magazine "The Saturday Evening Post". In his old age, he worked part-time in drug-rehabilitation.
Langley died in November 1980, at the age of 68. Several of his films continue to enjoy popularity, and his screenplay for "The Wizard of Oz" has received its own adaptations.- Alex Clarke was born on 16 March 1949 in Los Angeles, California, USA.

Bob Bemiller was born on 4 April 1915 in Twin Falls, Idaho, USA. He was a director, known for Baggy Pants & the Nitwits (1977), Moon Dreamers (1986) and Popeye the Sailor (1960). He was married to Martha Hilliard Baerer. He died on 12 January 1999 in Desert Hot Springs, California, USA.- Gangster Owney Madden was born to an Irish family in Leeds, England, in 1892 (his parents were dockworkers there), and they emigrated to the US in 1903. Growing up in the tough New York ghetto called Hell's Kitchen, the young Madden joined a group of local thugs called the Gopher Gang. He became known as a fierce and relentless fighter, quick to use a lead pipe, knife or gun. By age 18 he had risen to the upper ranks of the gang, and was suspected by police of having murdered at least five members of the rival Hudson Dusters gang. In addition to his penchant for violence, Madden was also known for his ability to fill the gang's coffers. He started a protection racket in which the gang extorted money from local merchants in exchange for their "protection" against anything happening to their establishments. Madden's reputation for violence was enhanced further when a store clerk asked a girl Madden was interested in for a date. Madden followed the man onto a streetcar and shot him. Before the luckless suitor died he identified Madden as his assailant. Madden was arrested and tried for murder, but the case was dismissed when no witnesses showed up to testify at the trial. He also survived an ambush by rival gang members in which he was shot eight times. While recuperating in the hospital Madden was questioned by detectives, but refused to identify any of his attackers. Within a week of his release, a half-dozen members of the Hudson Dusters had been shot and killed.
Madden didn't always get away with his crimes, however. In 1914 he shot and killed a rival gang member who snitched to the authorities about Madden's criminal activities. This time the police caught two of his accomplices; they quickly confessed and implicated Madden, who was arrested, tried for and convicted of murder and sentenced to 20 years in prison. He was released on parole after serving nine years, only to discover that his old gang had broken up. He went to work for the Dutch Schultz mob as a soldier in the "Beer Wars" Schultz was engaged in with such gangsters as 'Legs' Diamond and Vincent "Mad Dog" Coll. Madden rose quickly in the Schultz organization, and in 1931 left to go out on his own. He soon became one of the major bootleggers in the city, in partnership with Schultz. He also partnered with two boxing promoters, Bill Duffy and Frenchy DeMange, and soon the three controlled the careers of such boxers as Rocky Marciano, Primo Carnera and Max Baer. Madden took a special interest in Carnera--a huge, hulking brute with virtually no boxing skills--and "arranged" for him to win every fight he was in, until he got a championship bout and took the heavyweight title in 1933. Carnera held the title for almost a year, but when suspicious reporters started nosing around and asking uncomfortable questions, Madden quickly abandoned Carnera, who lost the title in a legitimate fight in 1934 to Baer.
Madden was probably best known for owning the famous Cotton Club in Harlem, a mecca for New York City nightlife in the 1930s. The club originally belonged to famed black prizefighter Jack Johnson, but Madden forced Johnson to sell him the club and then instituted a strict "whites only" policy (all blacks, whether employees or performers, were forbidden to enter by the front door, and no blacks whatsoever were allowed into the club as patrons). In 1932 his old nemesis "Mad Dog" Coll attempted to extort money from Madden and several of his gangster friends. The only thing Coll got was machine-gunned to death in a drive-by shooting shortly thereafter. Madden was questioned by police but denied any knowledge about Coll's killing. However, not long after the incident he was arrested on a parole violation charge and briefly jailed. Police kept pressure on Madden until, in 1935, he finally left New York, settling in Hot Springs, Arkansas, a town notorious for its wide-open attitude toward criminal activities. Madden opened a hotel, spa and casino and kept his hand in the local underworld, but managed to stay out of trouble and the headlines. He died in Hot Springs in 1965, one of the few major gangsters of his time to end his life quietly in bed. - Writer

Morris R. Schlank, the eponymous boss of Morris R. Schlank Productions, is vaguely remembered as a Poverty Row producer who continued to turn out silent films into the 1930s for his main market of third-run rural movie theaters. In the pantheon of movie producers, Schlank was to Irving Thalberg what Pauly Shore is to Charles Chaplin among comedians.
Schlank was born on 1879 in Omaha, Nebraska. By 1914 he had established himself in Hollywood with a costume rental business. In 1919 he produced his first motion picture, the comedy short The Janitor (1919) starring Hank Mann, who had played one of the Keystone Kops. Schlank produced a plethora of comedy shorts with Mann, at least one of which was directed by Charley Chase, a talented second-tier silent comedian himself who at the end of his career directed shorts starring The Three Stooges (if the entertaining Chase was second-rate, Mann's rating as a cinema stooge likely was junk status). The other King of Comedy at Schlank's studio was Bobby Ray, another "star" whose light has been snuffed out by the sifting sands of time, albeit a star that never burned very brightly in the first place.
Schlank's first feature film was Storm Girl (1922), which was directed by Francis Ford (John Ford's brother), who also starred in the picture. Once a major filmmaker and star, Ford was on the downside of his career, a situation that typified Morris R. Schlank Productions employees, such as director/writer/producer/actor Ben F. Wilson, who ended his prolific career at Schlank's studio. Other than his featuring of "Never-Will-Be's", the hallmark of Schlank productions was the use of "Has-Been's"--actors and filmmakers in the twilight of their careers.
Dangerous Trails (1923) likely was the highlight of the output of Schlank's studio; the western starred character actor Noah Beery and Irene Rich, a frequent co-star of Will Rogers in the early 1920s. The studio cranked out low-budget westerns starring Al Hoxie, the brother of the more famous (and equally forgotten) cowboy star Jack Hoxie.
A Morris R. Schlank production was made very quickly on an extremely low budget. A Schlank picture was silent up through 1930. After taking a year off, Schlank returned to the screen in 1932 with Shop Angel (1932), his first sound movie. There would be two more Schlank sound productions released in 1932: Drifting Souls (1932) and Exposure (1932).
Morris R. Schlank died of a heart attack on June 29, 1932, while vacationing at Murietta Hot Springs, CA. He was 52 years old.- Additional Crew
