Jackie Searl
Known on radio as Orange County Buddy
Born in Anaheim, California
on July 7, 1920

Jackie Searl's first movie role was in Tom Sawyer, with Jackie Coogan and Mitzi Green. His shenanigans on the screen as "the snitching sissy" and "sandbox Attila" caused many critics of the day to marvel. He was  adroit in his sense of timing and could steal a scene with such ease that many adult stars would refuse to play opposite him. Off stage, he was a clean-cut, almost shy boy. As an adult, he appeared in many movies and on TV. His last name is sometimes misspelled Searle. --Edited  from Those Endearing Young Charms, by Marc Best.
