Mystery actor

[Click for a larger view.]

I think it’s a tough one — tough as in I have no idea. How about you?

Leave your best guess in the comments. I’ll add hints if they’re needed.

Thanks, Brian.

Here’s a hint: this actor is best known for a role in a television series. And known, really, only for that role, beginning in the 1950s and extending into the 1960s.

The answer is now (sort of) in the comments.

No glimmer of recognition even. As clues for others I’d say this image was taken in the mid-1930s. If he was 20 or so at the time that would put his birth in the mid-teens. If he was in TV shows that would make him in his 40s during the “Golden Era” of the 1950s.

No date on the photo, but it does look like one from the 1930s, maybe the early ’40s. And the role began in the 1950s but went into the 1960s.

I’m heading out the door, so I’ll reveal without revealing. You can still play though.

Here, with the actor’s name, is the source for the photograph.

This actor appeared as a mystery actor in this 2020 post. But there’s he’s immediately recognizable. Here, not so much.

When my brother sent me this picture, my first guess was Anthony Fauci.

William Hopper? aka Paul Drake.
