Personal Quote:
[on Sudden Fear (1952)] There were days Joan [Crawford] looked so angry that I was afraid she was going to chuck something at Jack [Palance]. She put all this intensity into her performance instead, thank goodness. She pretended Gloria [Grahame] didn't exist, and I just tried to stay out of her way. I think David Miller [the director] found it all a trial, but he stayed on keel in spite of it. ... See more »Trivia:
He and his Perry Mason: The Case of the Bullied Bowler (1964) co-star Barbara Hale both died on January 26, 2017. See more »Nickname:
