Happy Birthday



Don Murray (July 31, 1929)

Handsome, square-jawed Don Murray most famously wooed Marilyn Monroe in Bus Stop (1956), and was the first husband of lovely Hope Lange.





His career never really took off, despite some fine roles in pictures like Advise and Consent (1962), in which Murray played a Senator With A Secret. Murray's notoriously strict moral code precluded him from taking many roles which he deemed too salacious, so perhaps that's why he never fully capitalized on his obvious beefcake appeal.

Happy Birthday, Mr. Murray! We hope that you're enjoying your 79th birthday.
