1916 Ken Curtis - Actor (Gunsmoke, Mr. Roberts, The Yellow Rose, Ripcord, The Alamo) He was also a singer with the Tommy Dorsey Band, and with Roy Rogers and Sons of the Pioneers. He played Tim Durant in the Perry Mason episode The Case of the Clumsy Clown He was in a lot of John Wayne movies. It took some getting used to the first time I saw him not playing Festus because he was so different. He sang in several John Wayne movies too.
