Alan Ladd
Alan Walbridge Ladd (September 3, 1913 – January 29, 1964) was an American actor and film and television producer. Ladd found success in film the 1940s and early 1950s, particularly in Westerns and film noirs where he was often paired with Veronica Lake. His popularity diminished in the late 1950s, though he continued to appear in popular films until his accidental death due to a lethal combination of alcohol, a barbiturate, and two tranquilizers.〔Obituary ''Variety'', February 5, 1964, page 63.〕 ==Early life== Ladd was born in Hot Springs, Arkansas. He was the only child of Ina Raleigh (also known as Selina Rowley) and Alan Ladd, a freelance accountant.〔http://www.encyclopediaofarkansas.net/encyclopedia/entry-detail.aspx?entryID=2767〕 His mother was English, from County Durham. His father died when he was four, and his mother relocated to Oklahoma City, where she married Jim Beavers, a housepainter. The family then moved again to the North Hollywood section of Los Angeles where Ladd became a high school swimming and diving champion and participated in high school dramatics at North Hollywood High School, including the role of "Koko" in ''The Mikado''. He graduated on February 1, 1934. He opened his own hamburger and malt shop, which he called Tiny's Patio. He worked briefly as a studio carpenter (as did his stepfather) and for a short time was part of the Universal Pictures studio school for actors. But Universal decided he was too blond and too short and dropped him.〔
