George Field (1877-1925) was an American actor and director of silent films. From 1913 till 1916, he worked for Flying A in Santa Barbara. Field starred in 207 films until 1924.
George Field was born George Blankman Field in 1877 in San Francisco, California. His parents were George Durgin Field and Elizabeth Blankman. He began as a stage actor on the West Coast. Around 1912 he became a silent screen actor. He starred for the Nestor company in such short silent Westerns as Young Wild West's Mexican Mix-Up (Al Christie, 1912) and Young Wild West Cornered by Apaches (Al Christie, 1912). From 1913 till 1916, he worked for Flying A in such short Westerns as The Fugitive (Wallace Reid, 1913) and The Cowboy Heir (N.N., 1913) and dramas like The Hermit (Tom Ricketts, 1914) opposite Edward Coxen and Winifred Greenwood. In 1913 he married his leading lady, Winifred Greenwood. They divorced in 1918.
After a short intermission, George Field returned in 1918 to the screen in the William S. Hart Western Riddle Gawne (William S. Hart, Lambert Hillyer, 1918). George later worked for another cowboy star, Dustin Farnum. During the early 1920s, George Field continued to appear in well-known silent films such as Blood and Sand ( Fred Niblo, 1922) and The Young Rajah (Phil Rosen, 1922), both starring Rudolph Valentino. However, illness cut his career short and he was forced to leave acting in late 1924. That year, he starred in his last film, the Western Trigger Fingers (B. Reeves Eason, 1924) with Bob Custer. George Field died of tuberculosis in 1925 in Los Angeles, California. He was 47. Wikipedia: "George's funeral notice appeared in The Los Angeles Times and stated that he was the beloved husband of Mary L. Field, so his divorce from Winifred is almost certain."

(History.com) Sept. 21 - On this day in 1985, a little-known actor named George Clooney makes his first appearance as a handyman on the popular TV sitcom The Facts of Life. Clooney appeared in 17 episodes of the show, which aired from 1979 to 1988 and chronicled the lives of a group of young women who meet at a fictional boarding school. Years later, he moved on to Hollywood superstardom in the hit TV medical drama ER and such films as The Perfect Storm, Ocean’s Eleven and Michael Clayton.
Clooney, who was born on May 6, 1961, in Lexington, Kentucky, is the son of the journalist and TV host Nick Clooney and the nephew of the well-known singer Rosemary Clooney. His early acting credits, in addition to The Facts of Life, included small roles on the popular sitcom Roseanne and the drama Sisters. Clooney also appeared in single episodes of such shows as The Golden Girls and Murder, She Wrote. Clooney first shot to fame as Dr. Doug Ross on the medical drama ER, which debuted in 1994.
While appearing on ER, Clooney headlined such movies as Batman & Robin (1997), in which he played the caped crusader himself; Out of Sight (1998), which co-starred Jennifer Lopez and marked the first time Clooney worked with the director Steven Soderbergh, his future frequent collaborator; and Three Kings (1999). After leaving the long-running medical drama, he went on to starring roles in The Perfect Storm (2000), O Brother, Where Art Thou? (2000) and Soderbergh’s Ocean’s Eleven (2001) and its two sequels, Ocean’s Twelve (2004) and Ocean’s Thirteen (2007). Clooney made his directorial debut with 2002’s Confessions of a Dangerous Mind, about the game show host Chuck Barris, who claimed in his memoir that he also worked for the C.I.A.
Clooney won an Academy Award in the Best Supporting Actor category for his role in Syriana (2005), a complex thriller about the oil industry. He also received Best Director and Best Screenplay Oscar nominations for Good Night, and Good Luck (2005), about the 1950s journalist Edward R. Murrow and his conflict with the anti-Communist U.S. Senator Eugene McCarthy. Clooney earned his first Best Actor Oscar nomination for his performance in the title role of 2007’s legal thriller Michael Clayton.
Off-screen, the actor, who was named People magazine’s “Sexiest Man of the Year” in 1997 and 2006, is known both for his confirmed bachelor status and his advocacy of various political and social causes, including the environment and the troubled Darfur region of Sudan.

I've always been a fan of George Takei. I really only knew of him through Star Trek and guest appearances on shows here and there, along with a few brief interviews of his. Even in character, he has always come across as a great guy. At this con I took the time to sit in on most of his panel discussion. Wow, did he blow me away.
He is very open about his life. He discussed the recent law in California which will allow him to marry his partner of 30 plus years (I think that is the right amount of time) and the upcoming vote that will be on the ballot to change the California constitution to amend that law. He is such a well spoken man and a fantastic spokesman for equal rights, not only for the gay and lesbian community, but for all people.
He also spoke about his early life and being sent, with his family, to an internment camp. At five his family was rounded up and shipped out after the bombing of Pearl Harbor and how he, as a young boy initially thought it was great fun to be able to sleep where the horses did.
He has lived a fascinating life and is such a fantastic speaker. As much as I respected him, his sense of humor (see him in Season 1 of Psyche) and his drive and passion, after hearing him speak that respect has increased. I'm glad I took the time to catch at least part of his panel.
George the Dogue de Bordeaux, may have the face of a badly packed kebab, but he's just such a lovely animal, big daft and loving..... and the other side of the fence.
