Donald O'Connor(1925-2003)
- Actor
- Director
- Producer
Born into a vaudeville family, O'Connor was the youthful figure cutting
a rug in several Universal musicals of the 1940s. His best-known
musical work is probably Chantons sous la pluie (1952), in which he did an impressive dance
that culminated in a series of backflips off the wall. O'Connor was
also effective in comedic lead roles, particularly as the companion to
Francis the Talking Mule in that film series.
