Greybeard

Did he ever play in a movie with Kirk Douglas?

Did the actor die young?

Musician?

Billy Jean Moffitt. This was her name before marriage. Her brother was Randy Moffitt. He was famous in two circles. He played for the San Francisco Giants, and the second circle was the pitching mound, as he was a pitcher. He also played for the Asto's and Blue Jays. I was going to use that but I didn't think it would help anyone. One thing that did occur to me is that if you were not living during the period, you are at a big disadvantage. Not sure how to overcome that but oddly if you were to pick an actor, actress or musician from the last 20 years, I wouldn't have any idea. Seems that at about age 50 remembering who was in what just doesn't register. Who were you thinking about when you asked about the haircut? That actually raised a question, since the 60's who was known for their hair style. I could only come up with Farrah Faucet, Dorothy Hamill and Princess Di.

That is correct. I was going to use the clue " she had a brother who in some circles was famous." Any idea who that was? I thought maybe too obscure. Oddly enough I learned about him from Howard Cosell. My next clue was going to be " she was famous/infamous for an event she rigged." I saved it for last as I thought it too obvious. Congrats, you are up.

It was his release that made him a pain in the *** to defend. I can't count the number of times I thought he would get sacked and did not. Sport is funny. Maybe if he was a Bill, the Bills would not have gone to any Super Bowls. It comes down to performing when you have to, not running up a bunch of stats.

I can see how she fits but no it is not her. New clue. I always thought it was odd that an athlete would associate herself with smoking but maybe back then almost everyone did.

Yes

Not to my knowledge.

I was thinking of people to use and I thought of her? Would have been a good one but no, wrong person.

No it was not. 15 minutes more and I will retire for the night.

During her career she was known by more than one name.

She may have been but it is not what she is known for.

No.

No she is not.

Yes

It is funny how clues fall into place sometimes. I'm thinking of a person .. female, alive

Howard Cosell

Was he involved in more than one sport?

Was she a native american?

American?

It was meant to be humorous. I wasn't paying attention to anything after Arts and Letters. Guess I will stick with carp jokes.

Art Linkletter. That was easier than your Babe Ruth picture.

I didn't know where he was born but the Military info is off also, but he seems like the kind of guy that fits the rest of the description. Perhaps the better question is: What state did he die in?

Despite being a genius, it appears this guy could not hold a job or complete his education, If his death was a necessity it was to make a statement or to keep him quiet. The date is wrong or I would have said Lee Harvey Oswald, and we did just pass the anniversary date of the JFK assassination. This is all pretty speculative because I really don't have a clue.
