Paul Bradley in The Monkees (1965)
Paul Bradley found his way into films after leaving the cavalry. Unfortunately for Bradley, his real name was distinctively Italian and it required him to adopt his stage name. This turned out to be a good career move for Bradley because he would find his niche as one of the most popular dress extras in the 1930s.

It was during this time that Bradley became connected with George Sanders and served as his stand-in and as his personal assistant. Whenever Sanders was working in the United States, he usually had Bradley as his stand-in. Sanders and Bradley developed such a good friendship that Bradley served as the best man at one of Sanders' weddings.

As Sanders' regularly obtained work in Europe, Bradley's distinctive white hair and pencil thin mustache made him a natural for socialite scenes in countless dramas and in some television westerns. He even obtained a lot of work as a mature male clothing model because of his dashing good looks.

While most people's careers came to a close, Bradley's career spanned through the early 1990s until he decided to bring a close to a career that spanned over 60 years.
