The Bogey to the Bacall of Myrna Loy , William Powell was born today, 1892. William Powell and Myrna Loy paired up for no less than fourteen movies, including TheThin Man , The Great Ziegfeld , and Manhattan Melodrama. It's enough to keep a man busy, but WP still had time to play roles in nearly a dozen episodes of Lux Radio Theatre , one of them an adaptation of The Thin Man . He also lent his acting chops to The Cavalcade of America and The Kraft Music Hall . And if you think Loy's partner never appeared on Suspense, think again. He starred alongside John Dehner and Joseph Kearns in a 1953 adaptation of "The Man Who Cried Wolf." Other Suspense appearances teamed him with Anne Morrison, Paula Winslowe , and Jack Kruschen. We salute the birthday of the late William Powell .
