Billy Gray Early Life

Billy Gray Early Life

He was born on January 13th of 1938, in the beautiful city of Los Angeles, California, United States of America. His parents were William H. and Beatrice Gray. His mother was an actress too and both of them had appeared in separate scenes of a 1949 horror-comedy known as ‘Abbott and Costello Meet the Killer, Boris Karloff’. His mother’s agent scouted him when he was young and was immediately put to work. He received multiple offers, however, most of them had no actual dialogues. With time, there were longer dialogues in the projects he was signed into. Gray began his Hollywood career as an uncredited extra in several films before being hired by comedy director Hal Roach to portray a member of a new generation of Little Rascals in the 1947 picture Curley. He never went to a proper school and received his education in between scenes on film sets. His most recent film appearance was in The Vampyre Wars in 1996. Besides filming, he also co-owns ‘BigRock Engineering’. This company invented quite a few devices which have proven to be useful over time- high-technology guitar picks, a self-massager, and a candle holder for jack-o-lanterns to name a few. Presently, Billy Gray has been living in his home at Topanga, California.
