Interesting Facts
Frank Cady embraced his baldness to the extent that he thought it helped him with his acting career. He is quoted as saying quote “At 24, my head was as shiny as a cue ball on a billiard table. I naturally thought this meant curtains. Actually, I found it helped. When I was too young to play real character parts, they mistook me for older because of the bald noggin. I got juicy roles right from the start”. end quote.
