Richard Long, appearing in “The Egg and I”
IT’S a real caution the way things happen in Hollywood. For instance, casting director Jack Mur ton had “lifted” two Hollywood High School girls to school.
“You should see him in our class play,” the girls were chanting.
“See whom?” Jack asked.
“Richard Long. He’s wonderful,” they enthused. So Jack suggested the girls have Richard telephone him that day.
It took a lot of doing to get Richard to the phone but after he’d gone to the studio and read the part of Drew, Claudette Colbert’s older son in the film “Tomorrow Is Forever,” he was it and no fooling around. His next performance in “The Stranger” convinced executives Richard was a natural, and International Pictures placed him under contract.
Dick (the youngest of six children) was born in Chicago December 17, 1927, and went from Waller High School to the Township High at Evanston. Remembering their home in Hollywood when they were first married, his father (a commercial artist) and mother returned four years ago and Richard enrolled at Hollywood High. He won an “H” for tennis and created another “H” for havoc among the girls who cased the six-foot-one, brown-haired lad with the oversized gray eyes and two stand-in dimples that almost make big time when he smiles. He’s had a few crushes in his time but realizes a teen-age romance isn’t to be thought of seriously.
.Being the only actor in the family, Dick comes in for quite a bit of wellintentioned criticism which he accepts gratefully. Of course, twelve-year-old Phillip’s pronouncement that brother Dick plain stinks, he accepts as disguised praise.
He doesn’t think his role in “The Dark Mirror” or his part in “The Egg and I” were very much but his studio just smiles and says nothing. They have plans for Richard, who can not only act but beat a piano into a frenzy — as if 'he weren’t fascinating enough to the femmes.
Outside Romanoff’s where the fans gather to glimpse the stars, they made one mad rush for Richard.
“Hey, Dick,” both boys and girls called in unison, “how about signing our autographs?” And when fans greet an actor with a “Hey, Dick,” brother, he’s in.
