Brian Keith
Brian Keith (November 14, 1921 – June 24, 1997) was an American film, television, and stage actor who in his six-decade-long career gained recognition for his work in movies such as the 1961 Disney family film ''The Parent Trap'', the 1966 comedy ''The Russians Are Coming, the Russians Are Coming'', and the 1975 adventure saga ''The Wind and the Lion'', in which he portrayed President Theodore Roosevelt.
On television, two of his best-known roles were that of bachelor-uncle-turned-reluctant-parent Bill Davis in the 1960s sitcom ''Family Affair'', and a tough judge in the 1980s drama ''Hardcastle and McCormick''. He also starred in the ''The Brian Keith Show'', which aired on NBC from 1972 to 1974, where he portrayed a pediatrician who operated a free clinic on Oahu, as well as in the CBS comedy series ''Heartland''.
==Early life==
Keith was born Robert Alba Keith in Bayonne, New Jersey, on November 14, 1921, to actor Robert Keith and stage actress Helena Shipman, a native of Aberdeen, Washington. Some sources also list his full name as Brian Robert Keith. He was raised Roman Catholic. His parents divorced, and he moved to Hollywood and started his acting career at the age of two. He made his acting debut in the silent film ''Pied Piper Malone'' (1924) at the age of three. His mother continued to perform on stage and radio, while Robert's grandmother Apker helped to raise him on Long Island, New York, just 37 miles east of where he was born.〔 She taught young Brian to read books over his age level. Prior to learning to read, he spent a lot of time backstage while his parents performed, being quiet for hours. Helena fondly recalled keeping little Brian in the dressing room in one of her dressing room drawers. He remained calm and was quiet and would sleep through the entire show. From 1927 through 1929, Keith's stepmother was Peg Entwistle, a well-known Broadway actress who committed suicide by jumping from the "H" of the famous Hollywood Sign in 1932.
After graduation from East Rockaway High School in 1939, in East Rockaway, New York, he joined the United States Marine Corps (1942–1945). He served during World War II as an air gunner (he was a radio-gunner in the rear cockpit of a two-man Douglas SBD Dauntless dive bomber in a U.S. Marine squadron), and received an Air Medal.
