Jamie Farr – 1934

While enrolled at Pasadena Playhouse, Metro-Goldwyn-Mayer talent scouts spotted and signed Jamie Farr. His first film role was in 1955’s The Blackboard Jungle, but his most famous role was in the 1970s television series M*A*S*H. Farr, who is now 86 years old, may be less in-demand as an actor than he was when he was younger, but he has certainly not retired. He has continued to appear in various productions, most recently The Cool Kids, which ran from 2018–2019.

Lorenzo Lamas – 1958

Lorenzo Lamas, an American actor, may forever be known as the spoiled grandson he portrayed in the 1980s daytime drama “Falcon Crest.” However, he was nominated for a Golden Globe as Best Supporting Actor in a Series, Miniseries, or Television Film for his work in that role. In the current era, however, he is better known for his role as Dr. Hollywood on the Nickelodeon show “Big Time Rush” and for hosting his own reality show, “Leave It to Lamas.” After finding some measure of success in the entertainment industry, Lamas decided to follow another passion of his: helicopter flight. He began his career as a pilot in 2016, and he is currently employed by HeliNY in New York.
