Lon & Marilyn - "Scudda Hoo"

Two pretty sexy looking-figures share a between scenes moment on the set of "Scudda Hoo, Scudda Hay", at 20th. Marilyn, in her first picture and our dear friend Lon McCallister. (1948) (The two gentlemen on either-side of them are co-star Robert Karnes (left) and Director / screenwriter F. Hugh Herbert (behind Lon).

 

The actor, Robert Karnes, with whom I was unfamiliar, it turns out had a long, prolific career in television, appearing in many episodic shows from the early fifties right up to his death, at age 62 in 1979. According to his credits, he worked with my father, Stuart, on an episode of Lee Marvin's "M Squad", that Dad wrote. The "line producer" on the series, Maxwell Shane, had been a screenwriter on William Eythe's "Mr. Reckless" at Paramount back in '48. Hollywood is a small town!
