Tommy Cook – 90

Another entrant to the ‘successful child actor’ list is Tommy Cook, who had looks and voice to boot. Cook worked on radio and made his way to acting. He was the ‘Little Beaver’ on Red Ryder, a radio series. He then played ‘Alexander’ on Blondie.  Cook was featured on many iconic animated series of the time, such as ‘The Superman/Aquaman Hour of Adventure’. Somewhere in the 70’s Cook decided he has had enough and left the industry. However, his considerable amount of wealth built up by then proved that he probably just wanted a quieter life.
