Bob Crane
Handsome and affable, actor Bob Crane looked every bit the wholesome, Middle-American everyman he played in film and television. As the star of the unlikely CBS wartime comedy "Hogan's Heroes" (CBS, 1965-1971), Crane gained national stardom with his portrayal of Colonel Robert Hogan; the irreverent and mischievously sly leader of a group of Allied P.O.W.'s during World War II. Crane's mysterious and violent murder in 1978 shocked his fans, and would later become the subject of director Paul Schraeder's 2002 biopic, "Auto Focus," starring Greg Kinnear in a spot-on portrayal of a tragic man who died far too soon.
