Tab HunterHappy 86th Birthday, Tab Hunter, today on July 11, 2017. Thanks for the memories. My favorites are of Tab singing and dancing in Damn Yankees and, against type, a psycho killer in the adult (that's "adult" in the sense of psychological and character driven rather than shoot-'em-up) western Gunman's Walk (both from 1958).

Happy Birthday Tab!
Making many people happy both as a teen idol, and later writing and telling it all.
Just seen him while I rewatched when he was young in Battle Cry 1955 last Sunday.
Last summer when I worked in a second-hand shop, among many singles and EP's people left for us, there were at least two with him, bought by a lady who said she used to have him on posters in her girl room when she was young.

Yeah, nobody knew he was gay back then--even though he was living with Tony Perkins at the time

He always seemed like someone you'd want to know irl and have for a friend. Happy Birthday, Art (and your alter ego Tab too) !

Apparently he was in The Sea Chase (1955). I found it a rather boring movie even with John Wayne and Lana Turner. So I forgot him entirely. It's the only one I saw him in.

Congratulations politicidal, this time you got to be the inevitable poster whose sole reason for posting in a tribute thread is to shove the guest of honor's face into the birthday cake. How impressive that you failed to notice him in his bit part days. Here's the rest of his filmography that you have not bothered to watch before passing judgement on him. Tab Hunter filmographyThe man's been remembered fondly for over fifty years, he must have been doing something right even if you can't be bothered finding out what.
