Jay North

 

Jay North is a household name back in the days as he starred in the beloved sitcom Dennis the Menace. He won the coveted role after competing against 500 boys. The young star nailed the role right from the start, winning numerous accolades. However, his life wasn’t as great as he hoped it would be. His aunt and uncle handled his life back then and were quite abusive to the child. To his co-stars’ credit, they did try to help him out.

North went on to do other roles in Wagon Train, The Lucy Show, The Man from U.N.C.L.E. and others. He also did voice acting in The Pebbles and Bamm-Bamm Show. Though the actor was haunted by the demons of his past, he has bravely faced them and managed to live a better life.
