Bobby Driscoll as Josh in When I Grow Up (1951). Bob was born in Cedar Rapids, Iowa, and had 53 acting credits from an unbilled 1943 bit to a 1965 Andy Warhol short, Dirt, as a nun in a bathtub.

After ten minor or bit parts, Bob was cast in Walt Disney’s first three live action features, Song of the South (1946), So Dear To My Heart (1949), and Treasure Island (1950). He was also the voice of Disney’s animated Peter Pan (1953). His entry among my best 1,001 movies is The Window (1949) and his other honorable mention is The Happy Time (1952). After The Happy Time, he was mostly limited to tv guest shots until 1957. He also had an uncredited bit in Lilies of the Field (1962) as a Mexican.

Not able to sustain an acting career despite his talent and determination, he had troubles with the law and with drugs, eventually being convicted, incarcerated, and labeled a drug addict. In 1962 he was successfully rehabbed, but he could not land any acting gigs in Hollywood or New York, effectively vanishing in 1965 after his brief encounter with Andy Warhol, until he was discovered dead at the age of 31 on Mar 30, 1968 by two children in an abandoned New York East Village slum.

I also was a pirate nerd.
