Rex Allen

A former ranch hand and rodeo bronco rider, Rex Allen became a popular singing cowboy in 'B' Westerns of the 1950s. Among his better known roles were "The Arizona Cowboy" (1950), "Silver City Bonanza" (1951), which paired him with Buddy Ebsen, and "Iron Mountain Trail" (1953). He headlined his own syndicated series "Frontier Doctor" (1958) and served as one of the hosts of the 1961 NBC variety series "Five Star Jubilee." Allen lent his distinctive vocal talent to a number of the nature installments of "Walt Disney" in the late 50s and early 60s. He continued an active recording career after retiring from films.
