Trivia:
Formerly lauded (by his press agents) as the next Elvis Presley, Tommy Sands started out as a juvenile actor on television. As a youth, he recorded a few hit rock & roll singles; he made his feature-film acting debut as the same in Sing, Boy, Sing (1958). His film career lasted in a similar vein through the late '60s until a liver disease coupled with mental breakdowns forced him to leave acting. He did, however, make a few guest appearances on the television crime drama Hawaii Five-O. Sands was formerly married to singer/actress Nancy Sinatra.

Trivia:
Redheaded leading man Robert Horton attended UCLA, served in the Coast Guard during World War II, and acted in California-based stage productions before making his entree into films in 1951. Horton's television career started off on a high note in 1955, when he was cast in the weekly-TV version of King's Row as Drake McHugh (the role essayed by Ronald Reagan in the 1942 film version). The series barely lasted three months, but better things were on the horizon: in 1957, Horton was hired to play frontier scout Flint McCullough in Wagon Train, which became the highest-rated western on TV. Horton remained with Wagon Train until 1962. He then did some more stage work before embarking on his third series, 1965's The Man Called Shenandoah. When this one-season wonder ran its course, Horton toured the dinner-theatre circuit, then in 1982 accepted a major role on the popular daytime soap opera As the World Turns. Horton continued acting until the late 1980s. He died in 2016, at age 91.
