Timeline
Before Evans went to work on Samuel Fuller's Shock Corridor (1963), he got into a bar fight with a tough opponent. Evans claims he hit the guy as hard as he could but only succeeded in breaking his finger. When he reported to work with a splint, Fuller objected, so Evans did the picture without it, resulting in a permanently bent finger. Fuller reportedly said in appreciation, "Well, that's what you get for fooling around.".
The rugged, red-headed character actor was a familiar face in such westerns as Cattle Queen of Montana (1954), The War Wagon (1967), Support Your Local Sheriff (1969), The Ballad of Cable Hogue (1970) and Pat Garrett & Billy the Kid (1973).
Although he often played tough, snarling sergeants, gunslingers or cops, in reality Evans had very poor eyesight and could barely see without his glasses. Only in Donovan's Brain (1953) did his character, a scientist, get to wear glasses, and Evans at the time remarked that it was a revelation for him to be able to actually see the actors he was working with.
His other major films include Park Row (1952), Behemoth The Sea Monster (1959), Operation Petticoat (1959) and Walking Tall (1973).
He also starred in the war films The Steel Helmet (1951) and Fixed Bayonets! (1951) and co-starred with future first lady Nancy Reagan (before she became Nancy Reagan) in Donovan's Brain (1953).
He became well known in the 1950s on television, playing the father in My Friend Flicka (1955).
After the war, he went to Hollywood, where he made his film debut in 1947's Under Colorado Skies (1947).
Gene Evans was born in Holbrook, Arizona, on July 11, 1922, and was raised in Colton, California. He served in the Army during World War II as a combat engineer, and was awarded the Purple Heart and the Bronze Star for bravery in action. He began his acting career there, performing in a theatrical troupe of GIs in Europe.
