David Canary

He has won five Daytime Emmy Awards for outstanding lead actor, and has been nominated an additional ten times. He achieved immortality by appearing on one of a series of United States postage stamps portraying movie monsters, as the Wolf Man, in 1977. He has appeared in the series since. He maintained a strong career in horror movies, playing all four of the classic horror roles -- the Wolf Man, Frankenstein's monster in The Ghost of Frankenstein (1942), The Mummy in The Mummy's Tomb (1942) and (the son of) Dracula in Son of Dracula (1943). The following year, he was also cast as Adam's twin brother, Stuart Chandler. In 1941 he starred in the title role of The Wolf Man, the characterization which would be his stereotypical role for the rest of his life. That same year, he joined the cast of All My Children in the role of Adam Chandler. He did not achieve stardom until the 1939 feature film version of Of Mice and Men, in which he played Lennie Small.

He left AW in 1983. His first movie was an uncredited role in the 1932 film Girl Crazy. In 1981, he assumed the role of Steve Frame on the soap opera Another World; George Reinholt had vacated the role six years earlier. He did not take any movie roles until after his father's death. Canary first came to prominence in 1967 when he was cast in the role of Candy on the Western series Bonanza. But he also studied makeup under his father. David Canary (born 25 August 1938 in Elwood, Indiana) is an American actor. He worked menial jobs in order to make his own way.

Chaney worked hard to avoid his father's shadow. Chaney was born in Oklahoma City, Oklahoma and died in San Clemente, California. He was born Creighton Tull Chaney, and was first credited as "Lon Chaney, Jr." in 1935, as a studio marketing ploy. Lon Chaney, Jr. (February 10, 1906 - July 12, 1973) was an American character actor, well-known mainly for his roles in monster movies and as the son of his better-known father, Lon Chaney.
