Television and movie actor-- best known as the conniving and lugubrious Mr. Haney in the subtly satirical 1960s sit-com Green Acres. Acted in 34 feature films; mostly westerns.

His rich over-the-top hucksterism as Eustace Haney can best be described as the perversion of the American Dream. Death of a Salesman in overalls and seed cap.

The talented Alabama native died of kidney failure in Los Angeles in 1994.

I'd give an ice cold 40 on a hot day just to hear him say "Giiiin-u-wiine" one more time...
