Anthony "Tony" Cardoza (born 1930 in Hartford, Connecticut) is an American actor and film producer.〔(【引用サイトリンク】work=The New York Times )〕 He has worked on over a dozen films, but is perhaps best known for his three collaborations with Coleman Francis in the 1960s: ''The Beast of Yucca Flats'', ''The Skydivers'', and ''Red Zone Cuba''. Before becoming involved in the film industry, Cardoza was a Staff Sgt. in the U.S. Army 3rd infantry division, being a Sgt. Gunner on the 105mm Howitzer in the Korean War. He was awarded two Bronze Battle Stars, the Good Conduct Medal, Korean War Medal, Sharp Shooters medal, Presidents Medal, The Sygmond Rhee Presidential Medal, The Asian War Medal, and others. Just prior to his Honorable Discharge, he was assigned to escort duty (escorting deceased soldiers to their loved ones). After his discharge, Cardoza worked for Pratt & Whitney Aircraft in East Hartford, Connecticut, as a Heliarc welder on J-57 Jet engines, a trade he continued making a living from for a number of years into his show business career. However, in 1963, a doctor advised him to stop welding because of chalazion forming under his eyelids. His work would be remembered in the 1990s television series ''Mystery Science Theater 3000'', as four of his five films would be lampooned – his three collaborations with Coleman Francis, and ''The Hellcats''. ==Selected filmography== * ''Final Curtain'' * ''Night of the Ghouls'' * ''The Beast of Yucca Flats'' * ''The Skydivers'' * ''Red Zone Cuba'' * ''The Hellcats'' * ''Bigfoot'' * ''Outlaw Riders'' * ''Smokey And The Hotwire Gang'' * ''Inside Out Upside Down'' * ''Crime Of Crimes'' * ''Raw Force'' * ''Heated Vengeance'' * ''Misfit Patrol'' 抄文引用元・出典: フリー百科事典『 ウィキペディア（Wikipedia）』 ■ウィキペディアで「Anthony Cardoza」の詳細全文を読む スポンサード リンク
