Wendy, he certainly deserves it.

Thank you for the pics of the HUAC committee and the stars that went to protest, history hasn't always been kind to these personalities, saying they were misguided or trouble makers but most of these guys had cushy lives at their studios earning good incomes, it does take some guts to threaten that life even if some think it's misguided, it's still a bit brave and they should be a little bit proud of themselves.

The one sitting in front in the last picture sure does look like Norman Lloyd.

[mongoII]

I don't believe it's Lloyd, Wendy.

Thanks Joe. I kept staring at him, trying to figure out whether it was Lloyd or not.

I never knew Tommy Farrell was Glenda's son.

HAPPY BIRTHDAY

KIRK ALYN (1910 - 1999)

He is a very likable man, I met him back in 1980 - I think at a Comic Book Store promoting Superman II starring Christopher Reeve. I tried to get his autograph but his agent advises him not to; due to ethics dealing with the promotion of Superman II.

I even get to talk to him for 3-5 minutes because the Store wasn't even crowded and everyone had a great time with him.

I'm pretty sure that's Norma Shearer, Mongo but it's a close call.
