Eric Fleming
Eric Fleming (born Edward Heddy, Jr.; July 4, 1925 – September 28, 1966) was an American actor, known primarily for his role as Gil Favor in the long running CBS television series ''Rawhide''.
==Early life==
Fleming was born in Santa Paula, California, an only child with an unhappy childhood. Born with a club foot, he needed crutches to get around and was often severely beaten by his father. At the age of eight he attempted to kill his father with a gun, which jammed. He ran away from home shortly after, fleeing to Los Angeles and then Chicago where he lived roughly and associated with gangsters, doing odd jobs for them to make money. At the age of eleven, after being wounded in a gun fight between some gangsters and hospitalized, he was returned home to his mother, who had recently divorced. During the years of The Depression he dropped out of school and worked at various jobs until he joined the Merchant Marine, before joining the United States Navy in 1942 for World War II. He served as a Seabee in a naval construction battalion.〔 He received severe facial injuries during a bet in which he was attempting to lift a weight and had to undergo extensive plastic surgery to reconstruct his forehead, nose and jaw. Before this, Fleming had always thought himself "ugly" and considered the incident a "wonderful balance of values".〔When Western's Ruled, Eric Fleming- Rawhide Star, actor - Tragedy http://trivia.ellenthorp.com/eric-fleming-rawhide-star〕 After his face reconstruction he returned to Paramount Studios where he had been working as a construction worker, grip and carpenter. He made a bet with an actor he could do a better audition. He lost the bet and it cost him 100 dollars and "I lost a lot of pride too, which hurt but the $100 hurt worse." So decided acting cost him to lose 100 dollars, acting would get it back so entered acting classes at the studio in the evenings.〔 He appeared on stage in Chicago and in a number of successful Broadway plays including the musical ''Plain and Fancy''. He began acting in television shows about the same time. Fleming then moved to Hollywood and starred in several low-budget films, including ''Fright'', ''Curse of the Undead'', and the cult classic ''Queen of Outer Space'', with co-star Zsa Zsa Gabor.
