Kelton Garwood in Captain Nice (1967)
Kelton Garwood was born in Columbus, Ohio on May 21, 1928. He went to Ohio State University, and appeared in plays and worked as a magician. He studied acting at American Theatre Wing in New York. Later he took riding lessons so that he could work in Westerns. He appeared in a few films including Miracle of the Hills (1959), Story of Ruth (1960), The Sandpiper (1966), and his last film, Return to Snowy River(1988). Unfortunately, all his roles were small and he is most known for his memorable performance as "The Hobo" in The Twilight Zone Episode: "Five Characters In Search Of An Exit".
