Fred MacMurray (1908â1991) Fred MacMurray was likely the most underrated actor of his generation. True, his earliest work is mostly dismissed as pedestrian, but no other actor working in the 1940s and 50s was able to score so supremely whenever cast against type. Frederick Martin MacMurray was born in Kankakee, Illinois, to Maleta Martin and Frederick MacMurray.
For over four decades, actor Fred MacMurray embodied the Everyman in a string of popular comedies and musicals, including Remember the Night (1940) and The Egg and I (1947) as well as a series of well-loved Disney live-action films like The Absent-Minded Professor (1961) and the long-running family series My Three Sons (ABC/CBS, 1960-1972).
