As a kid, I only knew Robert Young as “Marcus Welby MD” in the not very convincing TV show. Only recently have I realized that he had a long movie career before Father Knows Best and Welby.

Another actor in the cast of "Joe Smith, American" would also go on to be a TV fixture in later years. Darryl Hickman, who was the older brother of Duane "Dobie Gillis" Hickman, began appearing in movies in 1939. His first credited role was in "The Grapes of Wrath," in 1940. His imdb.com page has a long list of television appearances in the 50's and 60's.
