# Fact 1 Was to assume the Larry Hagman role of 'Major Anthony (Tony) Nelson' for the sixth season of "I Dream of Jeannie", but NBC cancelled the series before production began. 2 Was a lifelong staunch liberal Democrat. 3 He studied drama at HB Studio in Greenwich Village in New York City. 4 Received a special tribute as part of the Annual Memorial tribute at The 79th Annual Academy Awards (2007). 5 Member of the Academy of Motion Picture Arts and Sciences (Actors Branch). 6 Received a B.F.A. in Theatre / Acting from the prestigious Actors Studio, New School University in New York City. 7 Studied acting at New York City's prestigious Neighborhood Playhouse under legendary acting coach, Sanford Meisner . 8 Studied Martial Arts when he was starting his career as an actor for his acting abilities. 9 He was indeed "curiously" uncredited in The Natural (1984). During the filming of the movie, Robert Redford was so pleased with McGavin's portrayal of his character that they began to expand the role. However, after a certain point, union rules dictated that the actor's contract needed to be renegotiated for salary and billing. After haggling on salary, and holding up production of the movie because of it, the billing had to be decided. Apparently, McGavin became somewhat fed up with the proceedings and instructed his agent to waive his billing entirely so they could get back to filming. 10 Children by Melanie York : Megan, Bridget, York, and Bogart. 11 Separated from Melanie York in September, 1966.
