list of features through the 1980s, including Murders in the Rue Morgue
(1932), Meet Me in St. Louis (1944), Little Women (1949),
Peyton Place (1957), From the Terrace (1960), The Absent-Minded
Professor (1961), Tora! Tora! Tora! (1970), On a Clear Day You Can
See Forever (1970), Testament (1983) and Peggy Sue Got Married
(1986, his last film). He debuted on television as the star of Life With
Father (1953-1955), and Ames would go on to starring series roles in
Father of the Bride (1961-1962) and Mr. Ed (1963-1965),
as neighbor Gordon Kirkwood). Ames also made several TV movies and
appeared as a guest star on a long list of series, beginning with early TV
anthologies. He was also the owner of a successful Los Angeles automobile
dealership. Signature lightly smeared but legible. Fine
