Trivia

Perhaps best remembered for his haunting vocalization of the theme song in High Noon (1952).

His spouse, Dorothy Fay, was his leading lady in many of his western features.

In 1970, he ran unsuccessfully in Tennessee for the Republican nomination for U.S. Senate.

Grandfather of Jason Ritter.

"You Two-Timed Me Once Too Often" was Billboard's No. 1 country hit of the year in 1945.

Veteran character actor Morgan Woodward's uncle, Dr. S. A. Woodward, lived in the San Angelo, Texas area. One day, he was called to help in the birth of a male child. The family, not knowing what gender was expected, had not chosen a name, so in honor of the good doctor's service, they named him Woodward Ritter. Later, he would be known more widely as "Tex" Ritter.

His horse in his earlier movies was called White Flash.

Grandfather of Stella Ritter.

He was awarded a Star on the Hollywood Walk of Fame for Recording at 6631 Hollywood Boulevard in Hollywood, California.
