KEN MURRAY
The comedian and vaudeville star who created the film Hollywood Without
Make-Up signed this check
Check Signed: "Ken Murray". 6x2¾. Dated November 10, 1969. Paid in the
amount of $10.05. Ken Murray (1903-1988) was a vaudevillian, actor, and
radio and television entertainer who hosted The Ken Murray Show, an
hour-long variety show on Saturday nights on CBS (1950-1952). It was also
broadcast on the radio nationally; at the time, televisions were still not
present in the majority of households. Another show he hosted called Where
Were You? aired locally in the Los Angeles, California area from 1954 to 1957.
He performed in various films, including The Man Who Shot Liberty Valance
(1962), Follow Me, Boys! (1966), and Won Ton Ton: The Dog Who Saved
Hollywood (1976). Perhaps his most important contribution to Hollywood,
however, was his use of home movies with Hollywood celebrities. He sent
footage of actors like Mary Pickford and Charlie Chaplin to his grandparents,
and he later used this film to create films like Hollywood Without Make-Up
(1963). They provide a first-hand account of Hollywood stars behind the scenes.
He wrote a number of books over the decades, including an autobiography.
