Guest Star POW 1/9 ~ Rory Calhoun

Post by CowgirlAtHeart »

Rory Calhoun played Tom Wilson in "Thanks for Everything, Friend." He saved Adam from drowning, and they became friends. Unfortunately, Tom was one of those friends that couldn't seem to turn his life around, no matter how much Adam tried to influence him! :sob

Rory Calhoun's name was originally Francis Timothy McCown. When he was quite young, no one would have expected him to become an actor. In fact, he was a jewel thief incarcerated in San Quentin. But when he got out of prison, he turned his life around, working in many different fields (such as boxing and lumberjacking) before becoming an actor. He starred in the TV shows The Texan and Capitol; he is possibly best known for his role in How to Marry a Millionaire. Rory passed away in 1999.
