1939: SECRETS OF HOLLYWOOD’S GOLDEN YEAR

RBJN3G John Wayne, 1930’s. John Wayne (born Marion Morrison) was the son of pharmacist Clyde Morrison and his wife Mary. Tom Mix got him a summer job as a prop man in exchange for football tickets. On the set he became close friends with director John Ford for whom, among others, he began doing bit parts, some billed as John Wayne. His first featured film was Men Without Women (1930). After more than 70 low-budget westerns and adventures, mostly routine, Wayne’s career was stuck in a rut until Ford cast him in Stagecoach (1939), the movie that made him a star. He appeared in nearly 250 movies.
