DENNIS HOLMES | 69

Holmes was a child actor who likely would be a distinguished actor with quite a legacy by now had he continued with his acting career. Holmes began his acting journey right from his uncredited appearance at six weeks old in Operation Pacific. His outstanding fame came with his role as Mike Williams in NBC’s western TV series, Laramie. His acting career includes 50 episodes of Laramie, as well as his roles in Wire Service, Father Knows Best, Woman Obsessed, and Wagon Train.

He also later joined his former co-stars in Laramie in an episode of Dragon at the Door where they showed the adventures of Japanese entertainers. His last appearance was in an episode called Trapped which was aired on May 14, 1963. Although little is known about his present activities and whereabouts, we want to believe he had the foresight to make profitable investments and is living life away from the spotlight comfortably.
