Talk:John Payne (actor)

Payne's Career-Interrupting Accident
If this "life-threatening" incident happened in 1959, why does Payne continue to have acting credits up to 1962, and only THEN a noticeable hiatus? I recommend documentation for "1959." Ted Watson 18:51, 25 April 2007 (UTC)
 * The entire chronology of this man's life and his work in movies and TV needs to revised, and that issue needs to be resolved. Just about everything seems out of sequence. Wastrel Way (talk)Eric

Birthdate IS May 28, 1912!
I think his actress daughter Julia Payne should know her father's birthdate, and she said several times there must've been a mix up by someone, somewhere, sometime. It's May 28, 1912, not May 23. Check his Mini Bio at IMDb, paragraph 2: https://www.imdb.com/name/nm0668361/bio?ref_=nm_ov_bio_sm#mini_bio:

"Born John Howard Payne on May 28, 1912 (not May 23, according to his daughter, actress Julie Payne), he was the middle son of three boys (Peter and Robert were the others)."

Also check Trivia, #23: https://www.imdb.com/name/nm0668361/bio?ref_=nm_ov_bio_sm#trivia

"According to his daughter Julie Payne, John was actually born on May 28, 1912, and not May 23. Somewhere along the line, she said, the "8" in "28" was accidentally transformed into a "3"."
