Alan Dinehart
Tall, heavy-set character actor Alan Dinehart dropped out of school to join a repertory company. He had extensive stage experience (including some 27 appearances on Broadway) and, by the time he was signed by Fox in 1931, he had worked not only as an actor but as a stage manager and writer. On screen he appeared for the most part in "B" pictures, notable exceptions being the MGM musical blockbuster Born to Dance (1936) and the 20th Century-Fox classic family drama Rebecca of Sunnybrook Farm (1938). Dinehart specialized in portraying blustering or shifty businessmen, crooked politicians or racketeers. While he is usually described as a supporting player, he actually started out in the early 1930s playing leading roles opposite some of the major female stars of the period. However, Dinehart's characters were rarely sympathetic. In Street of Women (1932) he essayed an architect who, bored with his society wife, indiscreetly keeps a mistress (Kay Francis) on the side. In Supernatural (1933) he was true to form as the phony spiritualist fleecing a wealthy socialite, played by Carole Lombard; and in Jimmy the Gent (1934) he was an urbane con artist in competition with James Cagney. On rarer occasions Alan found gainful employment as more benevolent characters, point in case his theatrical impressario Theodore von Eltz in Dance, Girl, Dance (1933). All of these performances attracted good reviews from Mordaunt Hall of the New York Times, ranging from "excellent" to "bearing up valiantly". In unlikely contrast to his self-styled image of "Hollywood's most versatile villain", Dinehart had strong comedic inclinations, co-authoring several comedy plays towards the later stages of his career. The last and most successful of these, "Separate Rooms" (1940-1941), with Dinehart top-billed alongside Glenda Farrell and Lyle Talbot, became one of the longest-running non-musical plays on Broadway at the time, finally closing after 613 performances. Alan's son, Mason Alan Dinehart, followed in his father's footsteps and also became an actor, featured in several westerns and on television from the late 1940's.

Alan Dobie was born on June 2, 1932 in Wombwell, Barnsley, Yorkshire, England. He is an actor and writer, known for The Disputation (1986), Hard Times (1977) and War & Peace (1972). He was previously married to Maureen Scott and Rachel Roberts.
Alan Donnes
A native of New Orleans, Alan began his entertainment career as a comedian before acting in "bad dinner theatre". After tiring of being relegated to conly comedies, he went back to stand up comedy and quickly found success as the opening act of for some of the biggest performers of the 80' and 90's and a total of at least members of The Rock N ROll Hall of Fame. The Temptations, The Four Tops, Jerry Lee Lewis, and many others are just a sampling of the acts. After appearing on Showtime"s Comedy Club Network and several other cable shows, Donnes entered The Johnny Walker Red Comedy Search. Although one of 5 finalist (out of 6000 comics), he retired from stand up again. Alan Donnes jumped to radio starting a sports network covering the NFL. Quickly his network grew to be one of the largest covering the league. On a lark, he covered a boxing event in Las Vegas and with great comic timing and sports knowledge became a much sought after boxing commentator. This odd career turn became even odder when a few years later he became part of the management team of Heavyweight champion Larry Holmes. After one too many dealings with Don King, he secured the rights to The National Lampoon Radio Hour including the rights to the classic library. Along with head writer Tanner Colby and executive producer/host Richard Belzer, he built the show into a powerhouse of comedy once again. In 2011, Alan Donnes was made President of National Lampoon leading the company in a brilliant turn around. Alan Donnes is currently producing a slate of film and television projects.
Alan Doshna
Alan Doshna was born in Yonkers, New York, but raised upstate in the Syracuse, New York area. A film and Tv fan during his early youth, he had taken a number of classes along these lines while still at home. Notably, he attended the first video art class in the country at the Everson Museum of Art in Syracuse, the instructors of which were Bill Viola and David Ross. After finishing school, he moved out to the Los Angeles area to attend acting school and pursue a career as an actor. He has appeared in a number of independent cable TV anthologies and series, some of which he also wrote and directed. One of these was a serio-comic tale of a lottery winner who ended up in more debt than the amount of his winnings, which, in a review, David Gritten described it as "compelling viewing". It also attracted the interest of David Permut and Marshall Brickman, who wrote a treatment for a proposed feature film version that he was to direct as well. Other programs in the series had more of an 'Alfred Hitchcock Presents' or 'Twilight Zone' feel to them. Most notably, however, not very long after he had moved to L.A., he happened to meet Crawford John Thomas, the Producer of Edward D. Wood, Jr.'s first, unreleased film, Crossroads Of Loredo (sic). A fan of Ed Wood and low-budget horror films in general, he would later become involved with the restoration of the film, and became the Associate Producer and Historian of the documentary The Haunted World of Edward D. Wood Jr. (1995). Along related lines, he has recently become a member of the cast of the forthcoming Kelton's Dark Corner: The Dark Corner Trilogy starring the late Paul Marco in the role of Kelton the Cop, made famous in several of Ed Wood's films in the 1950s. Alan co-wrote, co-directed and appeared in the independent film Batwomen along with filmmaker Jimmy Traynor, which was based on the script Batwoman by Doshna and an uncredited Philip Yordan. It was an homage/tribute to the cult film The Wild World of Batwoman(aka She was a Hippy Vampire) and was to have starred the Batwoman from that film, Katherine Victor. Unfortunately she had to drop out due to illness although she appears in archival footage. The film has not yet had an official release. He has been working with Six Million Dollar Man co-star Richard Anderson on his official biography.
