McClure, Doug

McClure, Doug
▪ 1996

      U.S. actor (b. May 11, 1935, Glendale, Calif.—d. Feb. 5, 1995, Sherman Oaks, Calif.), was a onetime broncobuster whose engaging looks and winning smile earned him television stardom first as William Bendix's sidekick in the series "The Overland Trail" (1960) and then as Trampas, a happy-go-lucky cowpoke, on "The Virginian" (1962-70), TV's first 90-minute western series. He also starred with James Drury, the title character in "The Virginian," in a spin-off called "The Men from Shiloh" (1971). Earlier McClure appeared in the taut naval thriller The Enemy Below (1957) and in the western The Unforgiven (1960). Other film credits include Shenandoah (1965), The Land That Time Forgot (1975), and a walk-on in Maverick (1994). McClure succumbed to lung cancer less than two months after unveiling his star on the Hollywood Walk of Fame in December 1994.
