He became a successful folk singer in the 1940s, and was cast as a singing cowboy in "Smoky" in 1946, billed as "The Singing Troubador", and he alternated between folk singing and acting for the rest of his life. He is likely best remembered for playing the role of "Big Daddy" in the movie version of "Cat on a Hot Tin Roof", and for his best supporting Oscar winning role in "The Big Country". He was also the voice of Sam the Snowman in the classic children's Christmas movie, "Rudolph the Red-Nosed Reindeer". Ives passed away in 1995 at the age of 85.
