I enjoyed reading "Catcher in the Rye" many years ago, compu-smart, but didn't find anything controversial about it. I didn't agree with Barry Goldwater, and didn't vote for him, of course, but I respect people who speak their minds and throw the consequences to the wind. He was the speaker at a luncheon meeting in the '60s when I worked in NYC and I was astounded by his height. He was a very tall man. Both Xavier Cugat and J. Edgar Hoover had their reputations marred by scandal in their later years, but were very prominent in the fields. Cugat was a good entertainer. I guess everybody likes Betsy Ross.

Just came back for a visit, compu-smart, to see all your new celebrity additions. I'm glad I did because Charles Bickford was one of my favorite character actors. He was great in many movies, but I'll always remember him in "Riding High" (1950), a wonderful Bing Crosby vehicle centered around horse racing. By the way, Crosby was a founder of Del Mar Race Track in California and was a talented rider, which he demonstrated in "A Connecticut Yankee in King Arthur's Court." (1949)

WOW, WOW, WOW!!! What an incredibly comprehensive Birthday hub, Compu-Smart! I can't imagine how much work this was, you did a fantastic job.

I see that Dana Andrews is in the list part. I think I have a couple of movies that he starred in. Seems to me that they are sci-fi or something like that.

Today, I know some, have a copy of Catcher in the Rye (haven't read it yet), and there are a few that I don't know or only know by name.

Even though J. Edgar Hoover was American, we know about that scandal William mentioned here, too. :)
