Probably because the Internet used to think he was born in 1920 or slightly later until it was later revealed he was a 1919 birth. Also Norman Lloyd and Marsha Hunt. The three of them are probably the last notable Hollywood actors born in that decade. 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
