Roger Pryor
Actor Roger Pryor was considered the "poor man's Clark Gable" at Universal and Columbia studios where he held long-term contracts during the 30s and 40s. The son of the popular composer/band leader Arthur Pryor (1869-1942) and his wife Maude Russell, the mustachioed leading man used his slick, roguish looks to good effect, enabling him to become a durable co-star of breezy "B" level musicals and stylish dramas. Born in New York City (Manhattan) close to the turn of the 20th century on August 27, 1901, Roger made his stage debut at 18 in a New Jersey stock play called "Adam and Eva." He went on to also work with the Myskle-Harder Stock Company in Connecticut. After years of touring in repertory companies, he finally hit the Broadway lights in 1925 with a production of "The Back Slapper" and went on to appear with Ruth Gordon in "Paid (1926), as well as "Saturday's Children" (1927), "The Royal Family" (1927), "See Naples and Die" (1929), "Up Pops the Devil" (1930) and "Here Goes the Bride" (1931). While he did a fine job replacing Lee Tracy in the popular classic "The Front Page," it was his role in the 1932 play "Blessed Event" that got the Universal New York movie studio paying special attention. Taking his initial film bow opposite lovely Mary Brian in the second-string Universal musical Moonlight and Pretzels (1933) , Roger was sent straight to Hollywood where he starred in the musical I Like It That Way (1934) and the sparkling comedy I'll Tell the World (1934) both paired with equally lovely Gloria Stuart. Roger was also Heather Angel's leading man in the light comedy Romance in the Rain (1934) before appearing in his biggest pre-Code picture as one of Mae West's paramours, the prizefighting Tiger Kid, in her bawdy vehicle Belle of the Nineties (1934). Roger continued on the "B" Hollywood romantic path for the next several years. He was part of a vaudeville trio act in the musical Wake Up and Dream (1934) with ill-fated Russ Columbo and pert blonde June Knight; appeared in Lady by Choice (1934) opposite Carole Lombard; starred in Strange Wives (1934) with June Clayworth; headlined both Straight from the Heart (1935) and Dinky (1935) opposite Mary Astor; appeared in The Headline Woman (1935) again with Heather Angel; starred in 1,000 Dollars a Minute (1935) with Leila Hyams; and was front and center in To Beat the Band (1935) co-starring Helen Broderick. Married in 1926 to Priscilla Mitchell, the mother of his only child, Roger fell in love with his co-star Ann Sothern of the romantic musical comedy The Girl Friend (1935). They were wed the following year (1936) months after his divorce was finalized. Experiencing the height of his cinematic career, Roger went on to play reporters in both The Return of Jimmy Valentine (1936) and Missing Girls (1936), an amnesiac in the comedy Ticket to Paradise (1936) and a songwriter in Sitting on the Moon (1936). As he began to decline into second leads and support roles (often as a heavy), Roger turned more and more to radio hosting, possessing a perfectly rich voice that suited the medium quite well. He also carried on the family tradition as a dance band leader and trombonist. At one time, wife Ann Sothern briefly toured with Pryor's band but the union began to crumble and they divorced in 1943. Roger's film career continued throughout WWII with secondary roles in such secondary films as I Live on Danger (1942), A Man's World (1942), Smart Alecks (1942), Submarine Alert (1943) and High Powered (1945). Occasional leads still came his way occasionally with Gambling Daughters (1941) and The Kid Sister (1945). The actor made his last appearance on film with the Roy Rogers/Dale Evans oater Man from Oklahoma (1945). Though his work as a bandleader was personally satisfying, it wasn't profitable and it drove Roger into bankruptcy. In 1947, he retired from show business altogether and turned to business, finding a comfortable niche as an ad executive and vice president in charge of broadcasting at Foote, Cone and Belding advertising agency. Roger remarried a third time and the couple settled comfortably in Florida. He died of cardiac arrest at age 72 on January 31, 1974, while in Puerta Valarta, Mexico. His elder brother, Arthur Pryor, Jr. (1897-1954) was a radio pioneer who ran a prime agency in the 1930s and 1940s.

Roger Rees
Like a number of British actors of the same generation (John Hurt and Alan Rickman, to name two), Roger Rees originally trained for the visual arts. He was born on May 5 1944 in Aberystwyth, Wales, and acted in church and Boy Scouts stage productions while growing up in South London, but studied painting and lithography at the Slade School of Art. He had to quit his studies, however, when his father died and he had to help support the family. His first paying jobs in show business were as a scenery painter. He was painting scenery, in fact, when he was asked to sub in for a part and made his acting debut. He put away his brushes for good after this. He turned to acting on a full-time basis in the mid-1960s and appeared on both the London and Scottish stages. After his fourth audition, the Royal Shakespeare Company finally hired him as a walk-on, sword carrier and bit player in 1968. He then worked his way up through the RSC's ranks, finally achieving stardom in the early 1980s in the 8-1/2 hour stage adaptation of "The Life and Adventures of Nicholas Nickelby", which had a cast of 40 actors, and for which he won both an Olivier Award and a Tony Award. Rees was also nominated for an Emmy Award for the television version of the play. By this time, he had several TV movies to his name, but he did not make his big-screen debut until Star 80 (1983). Living in the United States since 1989, Roger made a name for himself in America when he joined the cast of the TV hit comedy Cheers (1982) as the priggish Britisher Robin Colcord and later the glib British ambassador Lord John Marbury on the series The West Wing (1999). More recently, he appeared as a frequent guest in several British and American television series and in a number of independent films. However, Roger Rees remained primarily a man of the theatre with secondary careers as a playwright and stage director. Married to theatre collaborator Rick Elice since 2011, Roger was subsequently diagnosed with cancer. Performing on Broadway in the musical "The Visit" starring Chita Rivera, he was forced to quit the show in late May of 2015. The 71-year-old actor died on July 10, 2015.
