Yul Brynner, perhaps best known for his role as the King in Rodgers and Hammerstein's musical The King and I. With his trademark shaven head and undefinable accent, Yul Brynner had played a seemingly inexhaustible variety of characters from a gunslinger of the Wild West, to Egyptian pharoahs. He had worked in many venues of the entertainment industry, from television, to Broadway, and of course the Silver Screen. He was a bright and shining star in his Era, a legend who can never be replaced.
In 1950, before Brynner acheived fame, he was the director of a children's puppet show on CBS, "Life with Snarky Parker, " which barely lasted eight months on the air before cancellation.
