Allan Lane has been a mystery almost as long as he's been seen on a movie screen. His audiences have varied over many years. Some know him as the never officially recognized voice of TV's famous talking horse, Mister Ed. Some remember him as Red Ryder, the comic book Western hero-come-to-life at the Saturday afternoon matinee. Some remember him as Rocky Lane, yet another Western good guy, and a name that became synonymous with his own.
Allan began working at the age of six. He later owned his own successful photography advertising agency. He started his love/hate relationship with acting at the age of sixteen in plays performed from city to city to ultimately make his way to Broadway. His movie career began in 1929 as leading man to Barbara Stanwyck, Loretta Young, and Joan Fontaine, among many. He appeared in many other television series, including Gunsmoke (1958-1961), Wagon Train (1958), and Alfred Hitchcock Presents (1958).
