Donn Gift

[poppie]

Dec 14, 1924-July 8,1979 I think the last movie he made might have been in was THE HAPPY YEARS with Dean Stockwell. IMO, it was a real stinker. Anyway, Gift always portrayed a sickly looking, crippled boy. I cannot find much about him on the computer; not even a picture. Does anyone on the Forum know anything about this man?

It's been over 4 years since this question was asked but I remember him most as Fodderwing" in "The Yearling".

He apparently also was known as Ray Tanva; I found this:
