Sorry I missed this birthday, but Jeffrey Tarlo reminded me: November 11, 1909, birthday of actor Robert Ryan. Ryan had been an amateur boxing champ at Dartmouth and a Marine drill sergeant, yet he worked for peace, civil rights and an end to nuclear war. Some say Joe McCarthy had the good sense not to mess with a fighting Marine. He starred in several notable films, and was often cast as a bad guy. Some of his films included Bad Day at Black Rock and Crossfire. He was also a fine theatrical actor who performed on stage with Katherine Hepburn. I had the honor of meeting him once or twice and knowing his kids.
