I need help finding information on two Chan performers. First is Ben Carter. I only found his IMDb listing but there's no bkgrd info. Second is Tim Ryan known for playing Lt. Mike Ruark. Again, same problem.

Can't find pictures for either.

Chris

Dear Chris,

I'll see what I can find at home. I know I have a still from "THE GOLDEN EYE" showing Tim Ryan under cover as "drunken playboy." I don't think I have anything with Ben carter, though. There may be an image in Dr. Berlin's "Charlie Chan Encyclopedia."

Sincerely,
Rush

Chris,
I looked up Irene Ryan, from The Beverly Hillbillies, and, sure enough . . . she was married to Tim Ryan from 1922 to 1942 according to IMDB.com.
I thought they had been married. I'm just not sure that I buy that far back!

Dear Virginia,

Interesting! So now we have a Charlie Chan connection with "The Beverly Hillbillies."

Sincerely,
Rush

I got my pics thanks to Aunt Ling!!
