Gregg Palmer
Gregg Palmer (born Palmer Edvind Lee; January 25, 1927 – October 31, 2015) was an American actor, known primarily for his prolific work in television westerns, and his intimidating 6'4 height and weight of 300 lbs. He appeared from 1960-1975 in varying roles in twenty episodes of CBS's ''Gunsmoke'' with James Arness, thirteen segments of the syndicated ''Death Valley Days'', and nine episodes of NBC's ''The Virginian'' starring James Drury in the title role. He guest starred five times on ''Bonanza'', NBC's longest-running western.〔(【引用サイトリンク】title=''Gregg Palmer'' )〕
==Early years==
Brown-haired and brown-eyed Palmer was born in San Francisco, California, to Norwegian parents. His father was a carpenter. He entered the United States Army Air Corps, forerunner of the Air Force, and became a cryptographer during World War II. He was discharged in 1946 as a sergeant. Sometimes known as "Grizzly", Palmer worked as a bouncer, truck driver, and in construction before he became a radio disc jockey.〔(【引用サイトリンク】title=Biography of ''Gregg Palmer'' )〕
In 1950, at the age of twenty-three, he procured his first screen role, as an uncredited ambulance attendant in the Martin and Lewis comedy film ''My Friend Irma Goes West''. In 1952, he had minor roles as Gratton Dalton of the Dalton gang in the film, ''The Cimarron Kid'', and as Joe Bent in ''The Battle at Apache Pass''. In the early 1950s, Palmer and Marilyn Monroe both unsuccessfully auditioned for roles as Abner and Daisy Mae in a proposed ''Li'l Abner'' television series based on the Al Capp cartoon, but the effort never materialized. Palmer was signed to a contract with Universal Pictures. In 1952, he appeared as William Norton in the comedy film ''Francis Goes to West Point'', starring Donald O'Connor.〔 Palmer claimed that he was going to be pushed as a big star by Universal in a similar manner to their other stable of stars, but in the 1950s the studio changed, hiring out major stars from other studios rather than build up their own. Palmer was soon dropped and went freelance.〔p.326 Weaver, Tom ''Return of the B Science Fiction and Horror Heroes: The Mutant Melding of Two Volumes of Classic Interviews'' McFarland, 2000〕
