How Bob Horton
His youth was a nightmare of injuries and illnesses that taught
By PEER J. OPPENHEIMER
Today, 36-year-old Robert Horton stands
on top of the world. He is the star of
"Wagon Train," one of television's highest
rated shows; he owns his own plane and
home; and he has enough money to retire
if he wished.
But to get where he is today, Bob has had
to overcome so many handicaps that he isn't
likely to go easy on himself or anybody
else, for that matter.
Bob's early life reads like a report from a
medical journal. By the time he was 12,
he'd had three major operations and five
arm fractures, been run over twice by cars,
fallen out of a second-story window, and for
two years, from 10 to 12, been considered
an incurable invalid.
Accident- and illness-prone, Bob suffered
setback after setback that prevented a nor
mal growing up. Because of physical inac
tivity and the resulting frustration, he
turned to eating constantly. Food became
such an obsession that when he was 17 and
only five feet, 10 inches tall, he weighed
205 pounds.
The fellows called him "Fatty." Girls re
fused to date him.
And, as so many men have found out,
the women in a man's life or lack of them,
in this case proved a turning point. Bob
had accepted his years of incapacity with
fatalism, even self-pity. But when girls at
his high school rejected him, he started
fighting back. Bob went on his own crash
diet, lost 30 pounds in three months, and de
termined to live life with all the expected
vigor of youth.
What's more, he did. And once he learned
what he could do with determination, he
never stopped setting goals for himself
and reaching them. It has led him to a ca
reer, wealth, and fame but not always
happiness.
Women are one example. Bob has been
one of Hollywood's most sought-after bach
elors. But success in marriage has eluded
him until recently. Marriages to script
reader Marilyn Jobe and actress Barbara
Ruick ended in divorce. There was a long
stint at playing Romeo before Bob's recent
marriage to Marilyn Bradley last New
Year's Eve in Las Vegas.
Like so many other "self-made men,"
Bob Horton is not overly popular with
everybody in Hollywood, and he doesn't
care. He doesn't make friends, he says, be
cause "actors just can't have friends, no
matter how hard they try."
"Actually, I haven't done too badly," Bob
says. "I have two people I can count as
friends Robert Walker, a casting director
at 20th Century-Fox, and Dr. Hans Kohler,
a Viennese dematologist.
Ho used to be coifed "Fatty," but
Bob Horlon, star of TV's "Wagon Train,"
is now a loan and handsome figure.
Family Weekly, March 19, 1961
overcame His Handicaps
him how to get what he wanted but not how to make friends
"That's doing pretty well. It's one friend more than a lot
of people can count on, and two more than some."
Bob has had difficulties with his coworkers, too. He blames
his outspokenness, as well as his conviction that you have to
fight for what you want. This was obvious when he argued
with "Wagon Train" producers for equal billing with the
late Ward Bond, and won his point. Reportedly, it led to
jealousies between the costars, aggravated when one got
more publicity than the other.
There was considerable gossip about Bob's "feud" with
Bond, but as Bob put it: "We had our differences, but they
were from a professional viewpoint. His death was a great
loss, and 'Wagon Train' won't be the same without him."
As for Bond, himself a tough competitor, he laughed off
the feud. "Bob is a very talented young man," he said just
before his death. "His portrayal of Flint McCullough has
done much to make 'Wagon Train' the success it is. This so
called 'feud' I've been reading about is nothing more than
the pipe dream of some very imaginative writers."
Nevertheless, Bob would probably be the first to admit he's
no charm guy. It doesn't worry him, though. If aloofness
ever becomes a big enough handicap, he will find a way to
overcome that as well.
