Changeling" with Fay Dunaway at the

His training at the Neighborhood Playhouse sent
him on a show business odyssey. He sang and
danced as Judge Aristide Forrestier in "Can
Can", stalked the stage in two productions
of "Dracula" and won the hearts of
children as The Aviator in "The Little
Prince".

Are Coming". His subsequent films, now
classics, include "Barbarella",
"Hurry Sundown", "The Golden
Voyage of Sinbad", "Danger
Diabolik", "The Sergeant",
"The Hawaiians", "Death Rides A
Horse", and "The Love Machine".
Son of an actress and a deputy sheriff, John grew
up on Hollywood studio back lots and is a second
generation graduate of Hollywood High. He went on
to study engineering and psychology at Cal Poly
and the University of Hawaii. He is an inveterate
traveler and has starred in more than fifty films
