Mini biography

Reliable character actor, mostly in Westerns, son of silent star Harry Carey and actress Olive Carey. Born on his parents' 1000-acre ranch in Saugus, north of Los Angeles, young Carey grew up among cattle and horses. Because of the many Navajo Indians who worked on the ranch, he spoke Navajo before he spoke English. During the Second World War, he joined the Navy and served in the South Pacific as a medical corpsman, but was transferred (against his will) to serve under his father's friend, director John Ford, in the O.S.S. After the war, he tried a singing career, but was not successful. After a couple of small acting parts, he was given a chance to work in a picture with his father, Red River (1948), (though they had no scenes with one another). After his father's death, John Ford gave the younger Carey a leading role in the film Ford dedicated to Carey Sr., 3 Godfathers (1948). As a full-fledged member of the famed John Ford Stock Company, Carey appeared in many of Ford's greatest Westerns over the next two decades. He also starred in a TV series-within-a-series, The Adventures of Spin and Marty, which aired as part of The Mickey Mouse Club. His extreme boyishness characterized his early years, but he has matured into a strong and very familiar character actor in scores of films over a period of more than forty years. He is married to the former Marilyn Fix, daughter of actor Paul Fix.

Mini biography

Harry Carey Jr. was born on May 16, 1921 on the ranch of his parents, the movie stars 'Harry Carey, Sr.' and Olive Carey. His father gave him the nickname "Dobe" shortly after birth as the baby's red hair reminded him of the adobe soil on the ranch. Dobe went to the Newhall public school and then went on to the Black Foxe Military Institute in Hollywood.

The young Dobe's dream was to become a classical singer like the opera singer/movie star Lawrence Tibbett, and he moved to New York City to study voice. In 1939, Dobe got his first paying job as a performer at the New York World's Fair, as a horse-rider in the show "Railroads on Parade." He become a page at the National Broadcasting Co. in 1941, but with the declaration of war, he joined the Navy. In his three years as a sailor, he served as a medical corpsman before being transferred to director John Ford's photographic unit, which was part of the Navy but also worked for the Office of Strategic Services. Ford had been the director on many of his father's silent westerns and was close to his parents. Dobe protested the transfer, but it was made none-the-less.

Dobe married the actor Paul Fix's daughter Marilyn in 1944, while still in the Navy. They have remained a couple for over 60 years, and have four children and three grandchildren.

After being demobilized, Dobe followed his father into the movie business in 1946 by accepting a role in Rolling Home (1946), following it up with a featured role in Raoul Walsh's Pursued (1947). His long association with John Wayne began in 'Howard Hawk' 's classic Western Red River (1948), and his long non-military association with Ford began with his role as The Abilene Kid in 3 Godfathers (1948), which was dedicated to his father, who had passed away in 1947. Ford had been the director of the original 1919 version, which had starred Dobe's father, Harry Carey, Sr. John Wayne again was Dobe's co-star, and the two appeared in nine more films together.

Dobe became a member in good-standing of Ford's stock company of actors. He appeared in She Wore a Yellow Ribbon (1949), Rio Grande (1950), and in The Searchers (1956) with Wayne, and in Wagon Master (1950), The Long Gray Line (1955), Mister Roberts (1955) (the film was finished by Joshua Logan), Two Rode Together (1961) and Cheyenne Autumn (1964) sans the Duke. Other non-Ford directed films Dobe appeared in with John Wayne were Island in the Sky (1953), Gun the Man Down (1956), Escort West (1958), Rio Bravo (1959), The Undefeated (1969), Big Jake (1971), and Cahill U.S. Marshal (1973). All together, Dobe appeared in almost 100 movies and 100 television programs.

He has made two documentaries, "John Ford's America" and "Legends of the West," and written a book, "Company of Heros, My Life As An Actor In the John Ford Stock Company." He appeared with his father, Harry Carey, Sr. in "Red River" (the two did not share any scenes together), and with his mother, Olive Carey, in "The Searchers" and "Two Rode Together."

In 1987, Dobe was awarded a Golden Boot by the Motion Picture & Television Fund Foundation, and in 2003, he won a Silver Spur Award from Reel Cowboys. He has a star on the Hollywood Walk of Fame, awarded for his television activities, located at 6363 Hollywood Blvd.

Biography from Leonard Maltin's Movie Encyclopedia:

Son of the beloved character actor and Western star, Harry Jr. (nicknamed Dobe as a child) served in the Navy during World War 2, then decided to pursue an acting career. His father, although estranged from his early partner and friend John Ford, told Dobe that when he died "the old man" would look after him. Sure enough, when Carey Sr. died Ford gave Jr. a showy costarring role in 3 Godfathers (1948, which Ford dedicated to Sr.) and made him part of his stock company, featuring him in She Wore a Yellow Ribbon (1949), Wagon Master (1950, another costarring role), Rio Grande (1950), The Long Gray Line, Mister Roberts (1955), The Searchers (1956), and Cheyenne Autumn (1964). By this time he was an established character player, closely associated with Westerns, and he kept busy in scores of TV episodes, a running role on the "Spin and Marty" segment of "The Mickey Mouse Club," and numerous feature films, including three for Howard Hawks (who'd featured him in 1948's Red River)-Monkey Business (1952), Gentlemen Prefer Blondes (1953), and Rio Bravo (1959)-and a handful of films with John Wayne (with whom he'd starred in 3 Godfathers): The Comancheros (1961), The Undefeated (1969), Big Jake (1971), and Cahill-United States Marshal (1973). Contemporary directors like Peter Bogdanovich and Joe Dante who revere that period-and directors like Ford and Hawks-have gone out of their way to put Carey in their films, like Nickelodeon (1976), Gremlins (1984), and Illegally Yours (1988), while Ford scholar Lindsay Anderson gave Carey not only his best role in years (as a New England handyman) but the chance to make movie history: In The Whales of August (1987) Carey costarred with Lillian Gish, as his father had exactly seventy-five years earlier! Most recently, Carey has been featured in such latter-day Westerns as Back to the Future Part III (1990) and Tombstone (1993). His autobiography, "Company of Heroes," was published in 1994.

Here's a piece I wrote for Harry,
and he has it framed and on display in his study,

HARRY CAREY

When I was ROLLING HOME, along THE LONG GRAY LINE
persued by THE SEARCHERS,THE LONG RIDER, THE RAIDERS
and the 3 GODFATHERS,I came to the RIVERS EDGE, of the RIO GRANDE,
where there was a wonderful MOONRISE.

I came across,SOME SWEETHEARTS ON PARADE,who are an
ENDANGERED SPECIES, and as GENTLEMEN PREFER BLONDES
I said KISS THEM FOR ME, but don't make
it a PUBLIC AFFAIR

I've had some WILD TIMES, as THE OUTCAST, FROM HELL TO TEXAS
but still remaiin THE UNDEFEATED,from SHENANDOAH
to TOMBSTONE!

To conclude, I remain ILLEGALLY YOURS,
from this CHEYENNE AUTUMN, I wish you SOMETHING BIG,
in CHERRY 2000

As there was a dearth of sites for Jack Pennick, the opposite is true for Harry Carey, Jr.!

Thanks Keith and Mrs. C for the great information on him. This is really great in knowing who they are.

Cheers B)

Hi Sue,

Thanks for the links, it all helps!

Hi all,
I'm reading his book - Company of Heroes and enjoying it a lot. In the Chapter about 3 Godfathers there is a lot about Duke. In the other films it seems they wasn't related so much. And Creys book is a great source of information about John Ford.
Regards,
Senta :rolleyes:

Harry Carey Jr's ([Only registered and activated users can see links]) sample clips of his new series Horse Tales. I'd like way he talks about Spin & Marty. Looks like it will be a nice series.

Considering the price of Yakima Cannutt's book. It may be worth buying Harry's book Company of Heroes before it goes the same way. I have been informed it is a good read and I have a copy coming to me.

Hi Mike,

Hope you don't mind,
as we have had some discussion about this book,
I have merged your post into Harry's dedicated thread.

I have a personally signed copy of this book,
and it is a very funny and interesting,
and without doubt a brilliant read.

Thanks Keith

I wasn't sure where to post. Sounds like a Great book cant wait to receive!!

Mike

I never knew who he was until about 20 years ago - although I had seen Big Jake and tThe Undefeated numerous times. Harry Carey's name was always talked about over the breakfast table on many-a-Sat and Sunday. Since seeing him in 3 Godfathers, Rio Grande etc, I have been a fan of his as well.

I saw Mr. Carey added a tribute to his Father [Only registered and activated users can see links] Harry Carey at his site. There's a picture at the bottom of his father and I clicked on it on, the short film came up.

Has anyone seen this before?

Thanks for sharing that link, I enjoyed it :hyper:

You're welcome JohnC.

Does anyone know who the singer is?

I remember seeing The Searchers for the 1st time and seeing Big John screaming at him

I felt really sorry for him

He starred in many of Dukes films and in my opinion always acted well

With regards to his book I will shop around for a copy, it sounds an interesting read

Have added new segment on John Wayne.

Harry, Marilyn and I would like to send our best to you all.

We have our series "Tales From The Set" for Free to everyone. Please feel free to link or send the series by email to your friends. It's at our site [Only registered and activated users can see links] Just click on the pictures.

Hello Clyde and welcome!!

Thanks for the info. Its nice to see the old clips and the background behind the set's. Tell Harry hello and best wishes to him and his family.

Hope to see you around here once in awhile.

Hello and welcome aboard, Clyde. I had already checked out the "Tales From The Set" the other day, and I enjoyed them all. Thanks to all of you for putting those together for us fans to see. I echo everyone else here in sending our regards and best wishes to Harry and Marilyn.

Mark

Thanks, Clyde, for keeping us up-to-date! And for your part in keeping the legacy of Harry Carey, Jr. alive.

Please give him and Marilyn our best regards! And maybe one day, he might visit our site - that would be GREAT!!

Chester :newyear:

Cheers - Jay:beer:

I have sent Marilyn & Harry your best. He's very happy that you have enjoyed his stories and there's more to come.

Best,

Hello Clyde, maybe you can get a answer for us here. One of many on going questions that the site has is, When/Where will the movie "Commanche Stallion" be available to watch or own? I for one have been waiting for quite awhile now and am eager to see this movie. Thanks.

We are working with a distributor to get them to release through Lionsgate...until then it is on hold. Thank you for asking

Thanks for the information. I think you can add most people on this forum as prospective buyers of that movie, so please send that message back to your distributor.

Thanks, Clyde for the link. I enjoyed a lot. Will it be a big version of both movies - Tales from the set and Bronx Cowboy on DVD available.
Can you also tell which early Harry Carey's movies are available now. I have a long desire to see them.
Regards,
Vera

Welcome to the forum, its a real treat to have a direct link to a famous co-star of John Wayne's movies, and many more besides.

As others have mentioned it would be nice if Harry Carey Jnr could visit the forum from time to time and possibly post a blog or just frequent/infrequent posts. Obviously he is a busy man with many obligations and commitments but I'm sure everyone here would like to read some of his posts/blogs.

I have a little question as well if you could relay it to Harry Carey, he played one of nine bad guys in the western "Big Jake". One of his fellow gang members was called "Young Billy," who seems to have disappeared from the final print of the movie, was this charter killed at the ranch at the start of the movie with his scenes subsequently deleted?

Thanks in advance

Great ques. I'll ask him after the Easter holiday Robbie. Best Clyde

Hello Clyde, In Japan, Harry Carey and Harry Carey Jr. are both famous.
Thanks for the limk.
The book "Company of Heroes" was published in Japan,and ofcourse I enjoyed
this book.
I am very envious that hearing the story some Japanese movie buff met
Harry Carey Jr. few years ago.

Regards,
H.sanada

Wow!!
Thanks Harry, Marilyn, and Clyde for putting up this great site. I can't tell you how much I enjoyed the book "In the Company of Heroes." Since Ford used pretty much the same group of people in most of his movies you just knew there had to be some great stories.

Thank you so much Harry for sharing your memories with us, we truely enjoy them.

Chilibill,

Dobe...Yo!

Thanks for asking, Clyde

There will be a new segment about Richard Widmark next week. Harry knew him in the 40's. Dobe worked at NBC and Mr. Widmark did voice overs.

Hi Clyde,
Thanks for sharing this.
Harry wrote me a couple of notes a couple of years back,
as a thank you for writing this about him.

HARRY CAREY

When I was ROLLING HOME, along THE LONG GRAY LINE
persued by THE SEARCHERS,THE LONG RIDER, THE RAIDERS
and the 3 GODFATHERS,I came to the RIVERS EDGE, of the RIO GRANDE,
where there was a wonderful MOONRISE.

I came across,SOME SWEETHEARTS ON PARADE,who are an
ENDANGERED SPECIES, and as GENTLEMEN PREFER BLONDES
I said KISS THEM FOR ME, but don't make
it a PUBLIC AFFAIR

I've had some WILD TIMES, as THE OUTCAST, FROM HELL TO TEXAS
but still remaiin THE UNDEFEATED,from SHENANDOAH
to TOMBSTONE!

To conclude, I remain ILLEGALLY YOURS,
from this CHEYENNE AUTUMN, I wish you SOMETHING BIG,
in CHERRY 2000

Sorry about your loss Clyde. Thanks for the update.

Thank you SXViper

Clyde, Tell Harry, Thanks for the memories. Glad he's doing well. May God bless you all. Keep up the good work.

Hi all,

Clyde, I've read Harry's book more than once,
and enjoy it more and more, please pass on
my best wishes to him and his family.

Are the "Tales From The Set" series available on DVD?

Hello Emmanuel & Brick,

I will let Dobe know. Thanks for the kind words. "Tales From The Set" is not on DVD. We made it so you & all fans would enjoy for Free.

Also, I had the honor of going over to Ireland meeting Lord Killain (he was a partner with John Ford) and visiting the Quiet Man Cottage. You can see a short film at [Only registered and activated users can see links]

I plan to do alot more about the Cottage and the Quiet Man.

Best to you both,
Clyde

Great ques. I'll ask him after the Easter holiday Robbie. Best Clyde

Hi Overland

Did you ever receive any answers in relation to the questions I posed earlier in this post?

Thanks in advance

:agent:

Hi Robbie

I think Young Billy (who as the narrator says this was his first criminal act) is killed by the cook or a ranch hand in the raid.

Harry's character is Pop Dawson who I think I remember rode with either Jesse James or Hole in the Wall gang. I have to say it took a couple of viewings to realise Harry was under all that dirt/makeup.


Mike

"Tales From The Set" is not on DVD. We made it so you & all fans would enjoy for Free.
Clyde,

I think it is wonderful that it is available to enjoy for free. But I must say, once folks have watched it, they may want to own it on DVD. I hope you will consider the possibility.

Our best to Mr. Carey and his family (and of course, to you, too!).

Chester :newyear:

Hi all,

Overland, thank you for the link to The Quiet Man cottage.
I have been to Cong, were the movie was made a few times,
and have also been to Maam's Cross and seen the cottage.
It's so sad that it has been allowed to fall into such disarray.

Hi Emmanuel,

How you doing?

It is ruined isn't it?:cry2:

A talented actor with a great career

Yes it is. The man (in America) that owns it. Wants to restore it so people can sleep in the Cottage. I don't know if it ever happened.

I hope to show how it was built for the film...I did talk to one of John Ford's family members in Ireland. He said (john ford's) Father's Cottage is still there on their land.

We just added two new segments about Richard Widmark. Hope you enjoy.

Hi all,

Clyde, I would just to thank Harry and yourself for
sharing those little insights about Richard Widmark.

You're welcome. What a kind man and a true professional!!

Hi all,

I was down with a cold a few days ago and took
some time of work. I started to re-read Dan Ford's
book about John Ford. After a day or so I started
to watch the movie that was in that particular chapter
of the book. I started with "Stagecoach", followed by
"The Long Voyage Home" "They Were Expendable"
Then after reading the chapter in which Harry tells about
the making of "3 Godfathers" in which He made his "debut."
I watched that movie as well. Then last night I watched his
other "debut" in Howard Hawks "Red River"

Hello, have added new segment on John Wayne.

Hope you enjoy

Hi all,

Clyde, Thank you for the new segment,
and please thank Harry for sharing his
wonderful memories with us.

I will. Dobe is really enjoying doing this. He promises more.

Thanks for posting Clyde

Great Read

Best

Mike

Hi Clyde,
Give my regards to Harry,
and I still treasure the notes he sent me,
after writing to him, the words I posted in the thread here!

Keith. I will send him your regards. You're welcome Mike.

Harry Carey Jr talks about Victor McLaglen at his site[Only registered and activated users can see links]

Really nice tribute to Mr. McLaglen

That was a fine tribute to Victor McLaglen, and how he asked about his son IMO to know if he will be alright for the future in his life. I can only imagine that Victor is smiling on his son with the great achievements he has made for himself with Duke and the Gunsmoke series.

Cheers :cool: Hondo

Thanks for the link

[Only registered and activated users can see links] you all.

There's another NEW one on Victor Mclagen and his LAST screen fight.

Just like to say thanks for watching Harry's series.

Hi headinwest,

We have had the same thread/post on this before!!
Are you in anyway connected with our member
Overland,
who has made the same identical link?

[Only registered and activated users can see links]

As a result, I have merged the two threads

No I'm Not. Thread should be for Harry. Marilyn & I
Thanks

Thanks a million! What great information. I Really enjoyed it all. Clyde! Was the duke showing respect for Carey Sr. when he held his arm at the end of the movie "The Searchers"? Thanks Again!

Hi,
He was,

* Western star Harry Carey died in 1947. Director John Ford cast Carey's wife (Olive Carey) as Mrs. Jorgensen (the mother) and Carey's son (Harry Carey Jr.) as one of the sons (Brad) as a tribute to Carey. In the closing scene with John Wayne framed in the doorway, Wayne holds his right elbow with his left hand in a pose that Carey fans would recognize as one that he often used. Wayne later stated he did it as a tribute to Carey. Off-camera, Olive watched.

Yes he was. John Wayne has know the Carey Family since the 30's. We are now working on the first time Dobe met John Wayne. Thanks for asking.

Hondo Duke Lane,

I do think that Victor McLaglen would be proud of his son. Dobe got to make a lot of films & tv shows with him. He sure has his own style of directing.

Hi Overland and headinwest,
As we seem to have new theads being opened relating to
Harry Carey Jr., I think, for contunuity reasons,
it's time to merge them all into our dedicated thread

Hondo Duke Lane,

I do think that Victor McLaglen would be proud of his son. Dobe got to make a lot of films & tv shows with him. He sure has his own style of directing.

in my opinion I believe you are right. I never doubted that. What kind of relationship did the McLaglen men have with each other? I think it was good, but maybe you can shed some light.

Cheers :cool: Hondo
