Agar’s rise to fame was meteoric: during World War II, the eighty–three–dollar–a–month buck sergeant met and later married “America’s Sweetheart,” Shirley Temple, and was soon offered a screen test and dramatic instruction by Hollywood megamogul David O. Selznick. He costarred in his very first film, director John Ford’s magnificent Fort Apache (1948), and parlayed that impressive debut role into a two–decade string of heroic leads. Steady work was the important thing to Agar, who easily alternated between A–pictures (Ford classics, Sands of Iwo Jima, more), drive–in favorites (Revenge of the Creature, Tarantula) and low–low–budget exploitation items. A gracious, gentle man, Agar tells the bittersweet tale of his journey through life in this tribute volume. This is John’s story. — ABOUT THE AUTHOR Nat Segaloff is a writer, producer, journalist, and Hugo and Locus Award–nominated author of more than two dozen books about filmmakers and film history, including Hurricane Billy: The Stormy Life and Films of William Friedkin.
