Tim Considine
Timothy Daniel Considine (December 31, 1940 – March 3, 2022) was an American actor, writer, photographer, and automotive historian. He was best known for his acting roles in the late 1950s and early 1960s.
Considine was born in Los Angeles on December 31, 1940. His mother, Carmen (née Pantages), was the daughter of theater magnate Alexander Pantages; his father, John W. Considine Jr., was an Oscar-nominated movie producer for Boys Town. Considine's grandfather, John Considine, was Alexander Pantages' rival vaudeville impresario, while one of his uncles, Bob Considine, was a columnist and author. He had two siblings: John, who was also an actor, and Erin.
Considine made his film debut in 1953, co-starring with Red Skelton in The Clown (1953), a remake of the 1931 movie The Champ. Credited as Timmie Considine, a review by The New York Times characterized his performance as "properly wistful, serious, and manly".
In 1954, Considine appeared in the feature film Her Twelve Men (1954) alongside David Stollery.
Considine's first acting performances included roles in the 1955–1957 Disney TV serials which appeared as 15-minute segments on The Mickey Mouse Club. He was also in the 1955 film, The Private War of Major Benson alongside his future My Three Sons costar William Demarest.
Based on the 1942 novel Marty Markham by Lawrence Edward Watkin, Disney adapted the novel into a serial, with the working title The Marty Markham Story. Considine was originally cast as the main lead of Marty, but preferred the secondary character, Spin. The project was retitled to Spin and Marty, and expanded the role of Spin to a lead character. Considine personally recommended his friend and actor, Stollery, for the role of Marty. The serial was made into three seasons, The Adventures of Spin and Marty (1955), The Further Adventures of Spin and Marty (1956), and The New Adventures of Spin and Marty (1957).
In the 1956 serial, The Hardy Boys, Considine played older brother Frank Hardy, opposite Tommy Kirk as Joe Hardy. It aired for two seasons, The Mystery of the Applegate Treasure (1956) and The Mystery of Ghost Farm (1957).
In 1957, Considine played the role of Ned Nickerson in a television unaired pilot made for CBS based on the Nancy Drew series of books by Carolyn Keene. He co-starred with Roberta Shore and Frankie Thomas.
