About Me |
|
| I worked as an actor from 1940 to 1955 or there about. I have been called "Hollywood's greatest stand-in" and a "Detroit Icon" In the 'Superman' TV series I was the guy who says "Faster than a speeding bullet... Able to leap tall buildings in a single bound!" I had one line in 'Joan of Arc' (1948) as Thirache, the Executioner. As I pile the wood on the bonfire to burn poor Joan, I call out "We need more faggots!" I started my Detroit television career as a newscaster on WWJ and WDIV-TV, and star of 'Your Hollywood Host' in 1952. A year later I left for Hollywood. I returned to the Detroit airwaves on channel 9 CKLW in Windsor, Ontario, before joining WKBD in Southfield in 1969. I soon began my weekly movie show 'Bill Kennedy at the Movies'. I moved to Florida in 1982 and subsequently lost my rug (hairpiece) in a seagull attack but continued producing one movie show a week for broadcast in Detroit on channel 50 WKBD. My last show in Detroit aired Dec. 4, 1983. I passed away January 27th 1997. I was 88. Suave, debonair savoir faire Just an SOB ( Sweet Old Bill ) |
