The boyishly handsome Morse first made his name on Broadway in the 1950s, and landed some roles in Hollywood comedies in the 1960s. «I consider myself an actor — shyly,» he told the Los Angeles Times in 1964. «I love acting. It’s a great use of body and mind … With all humility, you hope that you are doing something worthwhile.»
