Chanteur et acteur US né Arthur Andrew Kelm, le 11 Juillet 1931 à New York. Tab Hunter est mort le 8 Juillet 2018 à son domicile de Sanra Barbara (Californie).
Born Arthur
Gelien, 11 July 1931, New York City, New York, USA. This blond-haired, blue-eyed
pop vocalist/actor was spotted in 1948, working at a stable, by talent scout
Dick Clayton. He introduced him to Rock Hudson’s Hollywood agent Harry Wilson,
who said ‘We’ve got to tab you something’, then named him Tab Hunter. He made
his screen debut in the 1950 movieThe Lawless and two years later co-starred
with Linda Darnell in the British feature Saturday Island (US title: Island Of
Desire). In late 1956 he received a phone call from Randy Wood, president of Dot
Records, asking him to record a song recently cut by US country star Sonny
James, the lilting ballad ‘Young Love’. Both versions made the US charts, Hunter
reaching number 1 and James peaking at number 2. Hunter also topped the UK chart,
but James lagged behind at number 11. He continued recording for Dot and hit
with the slightly up-tempo ‘99 Ways’, which narrowly missed the US Top 10 but
made the UK Top 5 (1957). In the following year he appeared in the film version
of the Broadway show Damn Yankees, with Gwen Verdon and Ray Walston. As Warner
Brothers had him under contract to make films, they resented him recording for
Dot and established their own record label in 1958. He signed, with moderate
success, and in 1960 starred in his own NBC US television series. Hunter
continued his acting and appeared opposite
Fabian in the 1964 ‘beach party’ featureRide The Wild Surf. He was still
acting in the 80s, notably with Divine in John Waters’ Polyester andLust In The
Dust, and also in the Grease sequel, Grease 2. In the late 80s Hunter moved to
Mexico to write, and set up a film production company, one of the fruits of
which was the 1992 ‘family’ picture Dark Horse.
Tab Hunter died on July 8, 2018 at his home in Sanra Barbara, California.
