Trivia
Personal friends with Walt Disney.
Interred at Holy Cross Cemetery, Culver City, California, USA, in the Mausoleum, D1, Room 7.
Adopted twin daughters, Kathryn and Laurie (b. 1956), with Haver.
Was among several actors considered for the role of Eliot Ness on TV's "The Untouchables". He was also the first choice to play the title role on TV's "Perry Mason".
At Fred MacMurray's insistence, all episodes of My Three Sons were filmed out of sequence during the show's entire run. MacMurray would do all of his scenes first, then leave until the next season. All kitchen scenes would be done together, then all scenes in the upstairs hallway would be filmed together, etc. This fact was well concealed until Dawn Lyn joined the cast as Dodie. Her upper front teeth grew in irregularly during the entire 1969-70 season, from being barely visible in scenes with MacMurray to being plainly visible in scenes without him.
He was the likeness inspiration for the original Captain Marvel (the one that emerged when Billy Batson said "Shazam") for artist Charles Clarence Beck in 1940. The original publisher of the comic book character was Fawcett Publications.
Early in his career, he recorded a song called "If I Had A Talking Picture Of You."
Portrayed George Harvey, star reporter for the Hillsdale Morning Star, on NBC Radio's "Bright Star" (1952-1953).
Steve Douglas, MacMurray's character on My Three Sons, was ranked #7 in TV Guide's list of the "50 Greatest TV Dads of All Time" [20 June 2004 issue].
First person to be named a Disney Legend. [1987]
In the 1970s, he was most often seen doing commercials for a video teaching "Chisenbop," a Korean method of doing math on your fingers.
His daughter Susan was born in 1942. His son Robert was born in 1945.
