Lou Christie was a popular singer from the Pittsburgh area, a former choirboy with no formal musical training, who hit it big in the early 1960s as a teenager with two songs featuring his very high-pitched falsetto voice, "The Gypsy Cried" and "Two Faces Have I." Several years later he hit it big again, with two more hits using his falsetto voice (though not as prominently as on his previous hits), "Lightning Strikes Again" and "Rhapsody in the Rain." The latter had the distinction of being one of the first songs to be banned from many radio stations because of its perceived "suggestive" lyrics.- Melba Rae was best known for her portrayal of "Marge Bergman", best friend to "Joanne Gardner", on the soap opera Search for Tomorrow (1951), from 1951 until her untimely death from a cerebral hemorrhage in 1971. Rae was the first high-profile daytime actress to die unexpectedly during an active series.
A lifelong member of the Mormon church and native of Utah, Rae married Gilbert S. Shawn in a Mormon ceremony in New York City on September 2, 1955. The couple had two children, Eric Shawn and Lisa Shawn. - Richard Montgomery was born on 6 March 1975 in Willard, Ohio, USA. He died on 16 April 1996 in Port Charlotte, Florida, USA.
