Despite his military background and athletic prowess, George O'Brien is probably remembered best for his westerns. He used his own horse, Mike, shown above, and even did some of his own stunts. (Mike got his own fan mail, believe it or not.) Mr. O'Brien continued to be featured in westerns into his 50's, with director John Ford often in charge. Below, he is in Fort Apache at age 50.
