 Alan
Alda (Alphonso Joseph D'Abruzzo) is
best known for playing Hawkeye Pierce on the
long-running sit-com "M*A*S*H."
Originally reluctant to take on the role, he was
one of only two stars to appear in both the pilot
and final episodes. |
 Fred
Allen (John Florence Sullivan) made
his career in radio with Town Hall Tonight,
a one-hour show that featured appearances by
celebrities, musical numbers, and social
commentaries on a wide variety of topics,
including criticism of the advertising and radio
industries. |
 Woody
Allen (Allan Stewart Konigsberg) is
one of the most prolific American filmmakers of
his generation. He has written, directed, and,
more often than not, starred in a film just about
every year since 1969, and has been nominated for
more awards than Charlie Chaplin, Buster Keaton
and Harold Lloyd combined. |
 Kirstie Alley
(Kirstie Louise Deal) first gained exposure
playing a Vulcan officer in the movie Star
Trek II: The Wrath of Khan. She gained fame
playing corporate executive Rebecca Howe in the
television comedy series Cheers, for
which she won a People's Choice Award and an
Emmy. |
 (Roscoe Conkling)
"Fatty" Arbuckle weighed
some 300 pounds, but never used his weight to get
a laugh. In fact, he was remarkably agile for his
size, and he often used that agility to find
humor in situations. |
 Ed
Asner established himself as one of
television's most reliable villains during the
"spy show" boom of 1964-1965. In 1970
he was cast in the role which ultimately made him
famous, Lou Grant. That role led to his becoming
the only actor to win Emmys for playing the same
character in both a comedy and a drama. |
 (Orvon) Gene Autry
is the only entertainer to have five stars on
Hollywood's Walk of Fame, one each for radio,
records, film, television, and live theatrical
performance. He recorded the first record ever to
be certified gold (That Silver-Haired Daddy
of Mine), and the second best selling single
of all time (Rudolph the Red-Nosed Reindeer). |
