Trivia

Children from first marriage: Daughter, Jill, and son, Degen

Always refused to divulge the meaning of his initials E.G.

Biographical entries indicate that he attended Carleton College and the University of Minnesota. However, researchers after his death found that he was enrolled at Mechanic Arts High School in St. Paul in September 1932 as Everett E. Grunz, but there is no record of his having graduated. Archivists at Carleton College say there is no record of his ever attending that institution.

Has suggested that initials might, or might not, stand for "Edda Gunnar" or "Enigma Gregarius"

Host of the long running radio series, The CBS Radio Mystery Theater.

Children from 2nd marriage - both are daughters. Children from 3rd marriage - Sons Sam and Jed, daughter Sarah

Though he was the host/narrator for the "CBS Radio Mystery Theater" from 1974 to 1981, he performed in only one episode of the show as Ebeneezer Scrooge in its version of "A Christmas Carol" by
Charles Dickens in 1975 (which was repeated at Christmas time every year until the show's demise).

In one interview, when asked about his initials, he stated it meant "Everybody's Guess."

Children from first marriage to Emy: Daughter, Jill, and daughter, Degen

Although he was typecast as being straitlaced and businesslike, he was notorious for his wicked sense of humor and pulling pranks on his co-stars. While filming
The Bold Ones: The New Doctors, he often ad-libbed profane jokes and non-sequiturs while his lips were hidden by a surgical mask.

Twice in the same year, Marshall and Oscar winner Beatrice Straight played husband and wife in two political films "Under Seige" and "Power", both in 1986.
