It's G. W. Bailey.
Omar Sharif was born in Alexandria (Kingdom of Egypt) in 1932 to a Melkite Catholic family of Lebanese–Syrian descent. His nationality was Egyptian.

Back in the 70's I watched a movie starring George Kennedy on TV and my dad kidded he was John Kennedy's brother.

Go to Youtube and look up 'The World, Flesh and the Devil' the 1959 film to see Mr. Audrey Hepburn acting. (And better still guys get a great look at beautiful Inger Stevens!)

Say! Farrah Fawcett was supposed to be French and Native American Choctaw descended. A look into her genealogy with all it's long lines show no Choctaw (!) and a French blood line over three years hundred years that stopped being French! She was actually around 50 percent English with other UK nationalities making up the rest of her background (she had definite German ancestry too in the state of Hesse from before the 1850s but she was seemingly under 1 percent German!). Many sources on her ancestry left out her being English at all.
( I have French-Canadian blood by my mom and I looked Farrah up to see if she too was French Canadian and I found this out!)

George Reeves died while trying to fly like Superman. That is myth. Reeves actually died from a gunshot wound.

Say George Raft, were you not born of an Italian mother and a German father? Half-truth. Gangster-actor George Raft was born of a father of German descent. But the infamous coin-tosser's mom was a German immigrant. See him in the 1915 NY state census where he is George Ranft. Creepily enough some claim relation to him and that his mom was indeed Italian. Who the H where they related to?
