however, and Autry's mother took him to be with her family in central
California. Carlos Autry now became Carlos Brown. Autry played sports
in high school and earned a scholarship to the University of the
Pacific where he played quarterback and then tight end on the football
team. He attracted attention in the 1975 football draft and wound up
playing for the Green Bay Packers. He started three games as
quarterback but his efforts were disappointing and coach
Bart Starr cut him from the team in 1977.
Autry then moved into acting and played small parts in
North Dallas Forty (1979) and
Popeye (1980) under the name "Carlos
Brown". While filming
Southern Comfort (1981) in
Louisiana in 1981, he again made contact with his father and afterwards
decided to change his name back to Autry. He also dropped the "Carlos"
and began to use his middle name -- Alan. His acting career peaked when
he played a small-town Mississippi policeman in the
In the Heat of the Night (1988)
TV series which ran from 1988 to 1995. Later, Autry moved into politics
and was elected mayor of Fresno, California, in 2000. In 2004, he was
re-elected.- Tricia O'Neil was born on 11 March 1945 in Shreveport, Louisiana, USA. She is an actress, known for Titanic (1997), Babylon 5 (1993) and Star Trek: The Next Generation (1987).

Actress and entertainer Pat Carroll played everything from chatterbox wives to wicked stepsisters on TV, and from Gertrude Stein to Shakespeare's Falstaff on stage. Even at 80 plus, the plucky comedienne showed no sign of stopping any time The riotous Pat Carroll was born in Shreveport, Louisiana in 1927, the daughter of Angela (Meagher) and Maurice Clifton Carroll. Her family moved to Los Angeles when Pat was five, and there began performing in local stage productions. She graduated from Hollywood's Immaculate Heart High School, an all-girls Catholic school, then attended Immaculate College, also in Los Angeles, and Catholic University of America.
Following her college graduation, she began performing comedy in nightclubs and gained early experience with appearances in resort areas. Her stage debut in 1947 with a role in "The Goose and the Gander" starring Gloria Swanson led to hundreds of stock roles. She made her off-Broadway debut in the play "Come What May" in 1950. Also a talented singer, she earned a Tony nomination for her Broadway work in the singing revue "Catch a Star" in 1955, and then enjoyed a number of brash showcases in such musicals as "On the Town," "Once Upon a Mattress" and "The Unsinkable Molly Brown".
It was, however, the "golden age" of TV that truly took advantage of Pat's adroit talents. An initial "second banana" regular on the variety programs The Red Buttons Show (1952) and The Saturday Night Revue (1953), she copped an Emmy award for her work on Caesar's Hour (1954) as Howard Morris' wife and earned fine reviews from her recurring role on the sitcom The Danny Thomas Show (1953) playing Bunny Halper, the pert and plucky wife of Danny Thomas' nightclub manager Charlie Halper (Sid Melton).
Pat's down-to-earth demeanor, chummy disposition and hearty, infectious laugh made her a popular guest on all the major talkfests and a welcomed panelist on such game shows as "You Don't Say," "To Tell the Truth," "I've Got a Secret" and "Password". In 1965, she co-starred on TV as one of the wicked stepsisters in the endearing Rodgers and Hammerstein's musical Cinderella (1965), which starred Lesley Ann Warren as the princess-to-be. In later years she won recurring/regular roles on the last season of Too Close for Comfort (1980) [retitled in 1986 as "The Ted Knight Show"] and the Suzanne Somers' sitcom She's the Sheriff (1987).
As a character actress, the cropped-blond comedienne never made much of a dent in film, which included supporting roles in With Six You Get Eggroll (1968) with Doris Day and The Brothers O'Toole (1973) with John Astin. In the late 1970s her career received a huge shot in the arm with the award-winning, one-woman show "Gertrude Stein, Gertrude Stein, Gertrude Stein", which she also produced and won multiple theater awards, including the Outer Critics Circle and Drama Desk trophies. A complete departure from her usual comedy antics, audiences saw a burgeoning dramatic actress in the making. Taking the show on the road for four years, she also won a Grammy for her recorded version of the performance in 1981. She then returned to Broadway after thirty years to appear in the play "Dancing in the End Zone" (1985).
Pat surprised her fans by continuing vigorously in this vein. She began taking on Shakespearean roles and earning critical acclaim. For her interpretations of Sir John Falstaff in "The Merry Wives of Windsor" and the Nurse in "Romeo and Juliet" she won bookend Helen Hayes awards. A life member of The Actors Studio, other challenging stage roles over the years have included Volpone, Mother Courage (another Helen Hayes award), the Stage Manager in "Our Town" and the Chorus in a Broadway revival of "Electra".
Still interested in tickling the funny bone on occasion, she performed in a number of adaptations of the wacky musical comedy "Nunsense" playing the Reverend Mother. If this weren't enough, she extended herself into directing, helming a musical version of "Alice in Wonderland" for The Kennedy Center, as well as productions of "Private Lives and "The Supporting Cast".
With the late 1980s, Pat became a voice-over favorite on numerous animated programs -- notably for Disney as the sea witch Ursula in The Little Mermaid (1989) and other voices in A Goofy Movie (1995). Into the millennium, the feisty character lady still gave voice life to many Disney related characters and in video games and special projects. Some elderly film work includes Outside Sales (2006), Freedom Writers (2007), Nancy Drew (2007), Bridesmaids (2011) and BFFs (2014). She also guested on the drama series ER (1994) and provided the voice of Old Lady Crowley in the Disney TV animated series Rapunzel's Tangled Adventure (2017).
She had three children (oldest son Sean and daughters Kerry and Tara) by late husband Lee Karsian, a one-time manager and talent agent. Tara Karsian is a character actress from stage, film and TV. Kerry Karsian is a casting director.- Actress

in plays, including Neil Simon's "The Star-Spangled Girl" and "The
Physicists".
Nancy was married briefly and divorced in the early 60s. While on Dark
Shadows, Nancy was married to co-star David Ford. The couple also
divorced. In the early 1970s, she married Dr. Harold Kaplan, a
prominent New York psychiatrist. Dr. Kaplan died in January1998. Before his
death, Nancy's husband got a chance to see her fulfill a dream. For
years she'd considered performing a one-woman show, and in August 1997,
she did, in "As If We Never Said Good-bye", at the annual Dark Shadows
Festival in New York City. She has since performed similar shows in Las
Vegas, Los Angeles, the mid-west, and at the New York cabaret club,

Born in Shreveport, Louisiana on August 19, 1952, David was the third child of Jack Gray Beaird Sr. and Mary Jane Hunter. He was a graduate of Chicago's Goodman School of Drama. In Chicago, he began his professional career as an actor, playwright, director, and acting coach that spanned four decades.
At 19, David won acclaim for his role in "Look Homeward, Angel" as the character Eugene Gant. The Chicago Tribune called him, "a young man who will one day be a consummate and famous actor." After a number of successful acting roles, he founded the Wisdom Bridge Theatre in 1974 on a shoestring budget. The theatre's name was inspired by a painting whose subtitle read: "The bridge to wisdom is in the continual asking of questions." This was David's method. Using his plays to ask big questions, David built Wisdom Bridge into a critically-acclaimed avant-garde theatre, with innovative stagings of "Cyrano de Bergerac" and "Twelfth Night". There he also developed one of his original plays, "Dignity," a life story of Socrates. He even adapted the comic strip, "The Wizard of ID" and staged it with a life-sized dragon puppet. By 1975, when David was 22, the Shreveport Times called him, "the nation's youngest theatrical genius" who was "setting the Chicago theatrical world on its ear." He left the Wisdom Bridge in 1977 due to health problems.
In the 1980's he headed to Hollywood where he wrote (or rewrote) and directed a series of films, including "Octavia" (1984), "The Party Animal" (1984), "My Chauffeur" (1986), "It Takes Two" (1988) and "Pass the Ammo" (1988), a satire of televangelism that was presciently made before the Jim and Tammy Faye Bakker scandal made news. Directing films was new territory and David recalled having to be told to say "action" and "cut" during his early turns as director. While "Party Animal" was a wild and bawdy romp, with "My Chauffeur" he was channeling screwball comedies of the 1930's. "It Takes Two" was also a romantic comedy. His films had commercial success and led to other offers, not all of which he wanted to pursue.
He did want to pursue theatre and in California, David founded the Whitefire Theatre in Sherman Oaks, which was close enough to his house at the time that he could walk to work. He ran acting classes at the theatre that became very popular. There was often the chance for students to work in the theatre in exchange for tuition. These classes gave actors a chance to work through material they would later audition elsewhere, which helped many land roles and certainly saved a lot of embarrassment.
It was at the Whitefire that David began staging "Scorchers", a play he had written about a cajun wedding night in the bayou. The play ran for at least two years and won several awards. The theatrical success of "Scorchers" led to a film version that was released in 1991. Although the budget for the film was fairly low, the strength of the material, and no doubt the charisma of the director, helped attract numerous stars to appear. Faye Dunaway, Emily Lloyd, James Earl Jones, Denholm Elliot, and Jennifer Tilly all contributed their talents. The opening monologue of the film is particularly captivating. In it, the character Jumper, played by David's lifelong friend and collaborator, Leland Crooke, describes his baptism in the mystical Lost River: "I hit that water. I swam in pure sunlight, and turned old but got caught young forever."
In 1992, he created the television series "Key West", in which an Ohio factory worker played by Fisher Stevens wins the lottery and goes off to live the writer's life in Florida, with Hemingway as his inspiration. David wrote, directed and produced much of the series, but ultimately felt hemmed in by the way the television network tried to control his work. Stevens begins one episode by saying: "Writing is a solitary exercise... It cannot be done by committee. You have to dig deep down into your gut with no distractions and with discipline." This summed up at least part of David's objection to the television writing process and perhaps helps explain why the show was his only major television writing credit.
Returning to the theater, David brought his heartstopping tale of greed and family dysfunction, "900 Oneonta," to the London stage in 1994. The play opened at the Lyric Hammersmith Theatre but then, due to popular demand and rave reviews, moved to the Old Vic. With Jon Cryer, Ben Daniels, Sophie Okonedo, and Leland Crooke in the cast, the darkly-comic show was a hit and garnered an Olivier award nomination for best play. "Disturbingly hilarious& nails you breathless to your seat" went one write-up from the Evening Standard. "900 Oneonta" also played in New York City at the Circle Repertory in 1996. Attesting to its appeal, the play had a long and successful run at LA's Odyssey Theatre, with the main London cast members returning in the cast.
In 2001, David married Shevonne Marie Durkin. They had been together since 1993, when they met and fell in love while working on a project called "Wasted Grace." At one audition, asked to read her lines differently, Shevonne jumped up on David's desk and belted them out. She got the part, of course. With her playfulness, loyalty and intelligence, Shevonne helped to ground and complete David. They shared many happy years together.
David worked for many years on a project that dealt with the power of Buddhism. In "The Civilization of Maxwell Bright," a misogynist played by Patrick Warburton (a Whitefire acting veteran) is humanized by an Asian mail-order bride who also happens to be a Buddhist nun. The film's subject, according to David, was "how one person pulls the other out of hell." It screened at festivals in 2005.
After that, his high-profile public output dropped off. His health suffered. But he never ceased to be an outlandish storyteller, a captivating presence, a lifelong seeker, and a generous soul. There are many stories that encapsulate David's generosity. It was a key part of his character. He would help a family with their mortgage, surprise panhandlers with large donations, pick up big dinner checks, give away a car, or, repeatedly, share his home with family and friends. He left his door unlocked and was open to visitors. He always looked for ways to help others, sometimes simply by giving them his profound attention, sometimes by whisking them out of truly harmful circumstances and giving them a new start.
He also had a profound connection with animals, starting with his childhood dog Skipper. His dog Zeus, with whom he loved to sing, is still waiting for him to come home and sing again.
David helped many people, both personally and professionally, by believing in their abilities. His belief was catching, and people used it to begin believing in themselves. He went out of his way to encourage and celebrate the creativity of others and sought, in his own relaxed and tolerant way, to support his friends and family. He had faith in his personal artistic vision and tried to protect it from whatever self-styled experts or critics said. Just as Jumper had in "Scorchers", David had found Lost River and hoped everyone else could find it too: "The secret, most precious, most beautiful things in your heart -- and in life -- just ain't on any map. But you been there, you know they real, they true whether you can prove it or not & Anything you yourself done swum in, believe."- Actor

Jack Prince, whose birth name was John Upchurch, was trained in singing
at an early age.
Prince appeared on Broadway in the 1950s in main and
understudy/replacement roles in at least three musicals: "Guys and
Dolls" (1950-1953), as "Nicely Nicely Johnson", "Lil' Abner"
(1956-1958) as "Marryin' Sam", and "Destry Rides Again" (1959-1960) as
Tom Destry's sidekick "Wash."
It was in "Destry," in which Prince sang two songs, that he made
the acquaintance of Andy Griffith, who had the title role (and who
earned a Tony nomination for his performance). When "The Andy Griffith
Show" started on TV in the early 1960's, Griffith asked Prince to
appear in a few episodes. Prince, who first appeared in two minor roles
on the show, was best-known, and is best-remembered today, for his role
of Rafe Hollister." Griffith wanted Prince to have a larger role in the
series, but Prince declined, feeling that it would take him away from
what was then a successful singing career.
Prince continued to perform in the theater and work the nightclub
circuit. Not much can be found about him during the 1970s and 1980s.
His last known appearance was on TNN's "Nashville Now!" in September of
1991, which was a reunion of many of "The Andy Griffith Show" cast
members. Prince received a standing ovation for the two songs he sang.
Prince is interred at Hillside Memorial Park in Redlands, California.- Actor

James V. Hart was born on 22 January 1947 in Shreveport, Louisiana, USA. He is a writer and producer, known for August Rush (2007), Muppet Treasure Island (1996) and Bram Stoker's Dracula (1992). He has been married to Judith Nugent-Hart since 5 August 1973. They have two children.- Nedra was born in Shreveport, Louisiana, and moved
to New York where she had a successful modeling career. In 1968 she
moved to Los Angeles and performed in such shows as 'Mind with the
Dirty Man','Confessions of a Female Disorder','Ajax' and 'Women of
Trachis'. - Little Mary Miles Minter was a child star who was dominated by her
mother. At the age of 5 she first appeared on the stage in the play
"Cameo Kirby". From that time on she worked steadily without a single
vacation. Her greatest stage success was in "The Littlest Rebel", with
William Farnum and
Dustin Farnum. In 1911, at the age of 9, a
New York paper described her as " . . . a ragged, straight-haired,
woman-faced little one". She continued on the stage until 1915, when
she started her film career. She was being groomed as a
Mary Pickford star - a child of innocence.
Her early pictures carried this theme with such titles as
Lovely Mary (1916),
Faith (1916) and
Dimples (1916). Mary was described by the
press as "of the screen as a sweet, pretty little girl with an
abundance of blonde curls, a picture actress slightly bigger than a
faint recollection, a little queen with delicate features and endearing
young charms". She later worked for
Adolph Zukor at Realart Pictures and one of
her favorite directors was
William Desmond Taylor. While at
Realart Mary made a number of films including
Anne of Green Gables (1919),
Judy of Rogues' Harbor (1920),
Jenny Be Good (1920) and
The Little Clown (1921). Her
salary, which started at $150 per week in 1915, increased to $2250 per
week. At that time she also became involved with Taylor, but it is not
known whether Taylor was looking out for his biggest star or if there
was any real romance.
Then everything crumbled. On February 1, 1922, Taylor was shot to death
in his Hollywood bungalow. His unsolved murder was one of Hollywood's
major scandals, coming at the same time as the
Roscoe 'Fatty' Arbuckle
incident. Though she was never considered a suspect in the murder, when
the public learned of Mary's involvement with a man who had
questionable dealings with women and was more than twice her age, they
boycotted her films. The discovery of her belongings in Taylor's
bungalow effectually killed her career in pictures. Mary was so weak
from grief that she was barricaded in her home for a month. By the next
year she had moved out of the home she shared with her mother and was
out of pictures forever. - Soundtrack

motivational speaker and U.S. Army veteran.
Jose Rene
Martinez was born June 14, 1983 in Shreveport, Louisiana to Maria
Zavala. His two sisters, Consuelo and Anabel, were raised in El
Salvador with his mother's family. He never met Anabel, who died as a
young child. At nine years old, J.R. moved with his mother to Hope,
Arkansas, where he lived until he was 17. He then moved to Dalton,
Georgia, a place he proudly calls his hometown. J.R. always loved
playing football and had aspirations of becoming a pro football player,
even though he was injured his junior year playing with the Bobcats in
Hope. During his senior year he played strong safety for the Dalton
High School Catamounts and they went on to Georgia's State
Championship.
After high school, he joined the army. J.R. was proud to serve, as a
way to give something back to a country that had already given so much
to him and to his family. In September of 2002, J.R. underwent Basic
and Advanced Training at Fort Benning, Georgia, where he gained skills
as an 11-B Infantryman. After reporting to Fort Campbell, Kentucky, in
January of 2003, he was assigned to the 2nd Battalion, 502nd Infantry
Regiment of the 101st Airborne Division.
In March of 2003, J.R. was deployed to Iraq. On April 5, less than a
month into his deployment, he was driving a Humvee in Karbala when his
left front tire hit a roadside bomb. The three other soldiers were
ejected from the burning vehicle, but he was trapped inside and
suffered smoke inhalation and severe burns to 34 percent of his body.
J.R. claims that while he was fighting for his life and awaiting
medical help, his sister, Anabel, appeared to him giving him the
strength to live.
J.R. was evacuated to a local medic station in Iraq and then to
Landstuhl, Germany, for immediate care. He spent 34 months in recovery
surgery at Brooke Army Medical Center (BAMC) in San Antonio, Texas. He
has undergone 33 different surgeries, including skin grafts and
cosmetic surgery. During recovery, a nurse asked him to speak to a burn
patient, who had just seen his body for the first time and had become
withdrawn. After a brief visit, the patient opened the curtain, letting
light in his room and his heart. J.R. then understood the impact he had
on this patient and decided to use his experience to help others. He
continued to visit patients sharing his story and listening to theirs.
While J.R.'s experience was certainly life-changing, amazingly he
claims this is actually a change for the better. When he does have
leisure time, J.R. likes to spend it with his family, friends and his
black lab, Romeo.
J.R. can be seen starring as Alfonso Rivera, a Los Angeles
paramedic/firefighter and a member of the U.S. Air Force Pararescue
team, in the nationally syndicated drama series "SAF3" (pronounced
SAFE), which premiered September 2013 in national syndication in over
90 markets across the country. The series is being shot on location in
Cape Town, South Africa, and Martinez commutes back and forth to the
United States where he continues the successful motivational speaking
aspect of his career.
Martinez is the author of the New York Times best-selling book "Full of
Heart: My Story of Survival, Strength, and Spirit," a memoir about how
he took his own personal tragedy and turned it into inspiration for
others. Published by Hyperion, the book came out in October 2012. J.R.
was also host of the highly successful "The J.R. Martinez Show" on KFI
AM 640 in Los Angeles, one of the highest-rated talk radio stations in
the country.
The past two years have been quite something; he and his dance partner,
Karina Smirnoff, won ABC's season 13 of "Dancing With The Stars." J. R.
was the cover of People Magazine, featured in their Sexiest Man Alive
issue and one of the magazine's 25 Most Intriguing People of 2011. Many
awards and honors have been bestowed upon him including an Ivy Award,
for his work with burn survivors and disabled veterans in the
entertainment community, and the 2012 National Red Cross Spirit Award.
He was the recipient of the 2012 National Disabled American Veteran of
the Year Award and he also received the 2012 California DAV of the Year
Award.
J.R was featured on Katie Couric's 2011 ABC Special "The Year" and
narrated the CNN documentary series "In America: Vets Wanted?" Talk
show guest appearances include: "Access Live," "Entertainment Tonight,"
"The Oprah Winfrey Show," "60 Minutes," "Ellen," "The View," "Good
Morning America," "Dr. Oz," CNN, FOX News and Univision. He has been
featured in the Los Angeles Times, The Washington Post, The New York
Times, Guidepost, Success, Salute, U.S. Veterans and DAV Magazines.
J.R. guest starred on Lifetime's "Army Wives" as a physical therapist
in the season finale. He played Brot Monroe, a combat veteran who was
injured in Iraq and returned home to face new challenges of civilian
life, on the Emmy Award winning daytime drama "All My Children." In
true Hollywood fashion, he was encouraged by a friend to go on the open
casting call that AMC put out for a veteran to join the cast. After
several meetings with producers he was cast and an actor was born. Due
to his popularity, what started as a three month story arc, developed
into a three year role.
Martinez has become a highly sought-after motivational speaker and he
travels the country spreading his message of resilience and optimism.
He devotes himself to showing others the true value of making the most
of every situation. He is called on by a wide-range of groups including
corporations, veterans groups, non-profits and schools. He is a
spokesperson for Operation Finally Home, an organization that builds
mortgage-free homes for disabled veterans, and he is involved with
Phoenix Society for Burn Survivors, Rebuilding America's Warriors
(R.A.W.) and Iraq and Afghanistan Veterans of America. - Actor
