COMMENTS / CONDITION: Note that the image shown is inverted from the scanned negative in order to give you a better idea of how the printed image would look. This is an original negative which can be used to produce high-quality photographic prints (no print is included with this item though). This is one of a large number of candid, red carpet and live performance celebrity photos, slides and negatives shot by long-time celebrity photographer Nancy Barr-Brandon that we will be listing over the coming months. Wear on these, if any, is mostly confined to minor corner and edge wear, but see scans for further details including condition. We do not deal in stock images or modern reprints, and all scans shown are of the actual vintage photograph, slide or negative being sold. If you have any questions about a particular piece, please ask before the auction ends.

BIO: Troy Donahue was born in 1936 in New York City, NY and died in 2001 in Santa Monica, CA. Troy Donahue was a journalism student at Columbia University when he began playing in stock productions. He made his film debut in Man Afraid (1957) and in 1959 signed as a contract player with Warner Bros., which promoted him to stardom with A Summer Place (1959) that year. He was soon a teenage heartthrob, his blond hair and blue eyes appearing frequently on the covers of movie magazines. His most successful film was Parrish (1961), in which he played the title character. A few years after that his career went into a decline; he made only a few television movies between the mid-'60s and his small role in The Godfather: Part II (1974) (in which his character's name, Merle Johnson, was actually his real name). His later films were almost entirely for the low-budget home video market, e.g., Sexpot (1990) and Nudity Required (1990).
