PHOTOS OF THE DAY: STARS AND THEIR FATHERS

Behind every great Hollywood star was probably a show business parent or two. To commemorate Father's Day, I wanted to put together some interesting pictures of classic Hollywood stars and their dear old dads. I was surprised to discover that it was harder to find classic Hollywood stars and their fathers than it was to find their mothers. I guess there are more stage mothers than stage fathers...

  1. Fascinating photos! I don't think I've EVER seen most of these movie fathers.

    Happy Father's Day to you and yours!

  2. This is great! Usually I can only find stars and their children, but it's a treat to stars with their parents.
    I had never seen any of these before. The Rita Hayworth and Shirley Temple photos are my favorite.
    Happy Father's Day to your family!
