Henry Blair (child actor)

[8][9] Of particular note among Blair's recurring radio credits are his portrayal of Ricky Nelson on The Adventures of Ozzie and Harriet from its inception in 1944 until 1949 (at which point Nelson himself joined the cast),[10] as well as the roles of "Donnie Henderson" on Beulah,[11] "Skipper" on One Man's Family, "Little Quincey" on The Baby Snooks Show, "Eddie Powers" on Masquerade, and Blair's favorite among his radio characters, "Little Beaver" on Red Ryder.

[12][13] One especially notable non-recurring highlight was the April 29, 1947 episode of My Favorite Story, featuring Blair as the title character in Charles Dickens' Oliver Twist, as adapted for radio by Jerome Lawrence and Robert E.

[15] On February 11, 1951, Blair, along with fellow "Radiomites" Michael Blair—no relation—and Norma Jean Nilssen, were the featured guests on local disc jockey Al Jarvis's talk show on KLAC-TV in Los Angeles.

[16] Amidst Blair's largely unsung film career, consisting principally of bit parts, often uncredited, one notable exception stands out.

[18][19][20] Onscreen, he voiced the titular antagonist of MGM's 1944 animated cartoon short subject, Barney Bear's Polar Pest.
