JOHN MCINTIRE

John McIntire was a character actor from the 1940s to the 1980s. He was one of the better "B-actors", always giving a solid performance, often in westerns or crime movies. He never became a star (although he did get top billing in "The Phenix City Story"), but he had a very long and successful career. When the John Ford movie "Wagonmaster" was turned into a TV series, McIntire played the lead role. He passed away in 1991 at the age of 83.
