Timeline
Harry Townes was born and died in Huntsville, Alabama, where he served as an ordained Episcopal priest. Aside from Huntsville and the priesthood, he had a distinguished, prolific, and quite long career as a character actor in movies and on television. He attended the University of Alabama in the 1930s, but moved to New York, before finishing, in order to study acting. He found his Niche at Columbia University where he also received his undergraduate degree.
From there, it was on to roles on stage -- his first in 1936 playing Captain Tim in "Tobacco Road". A two-year run in the part of a leprechaun in "Finian's Rainbow" came next -- a role that also took him to London. After a spattering of roles in the movies, Townes found his greatest presence on television, amassing a very large portfolio of roles for his handbag of characters.
Studio One in Hollywood (1948), Days Of Wine & Roses - Cliff Robertson & Piper Laurie, "Playhouse 90" Original TV Version (1956) and Ponds Theater (1953) all enjoyed his contributions.
The more popular Gunsmoke (1955), Perry Mason (1957), Star Trek: The Original Series (1966), Rawhide (1959) and Bonanza (1959) also benefited from Townes' acting skills.
Harry Townes appeared in "The Four of Us Are Dying," a The Twilight Zone (1959) episode, and in "The First," a two-parter of the The Incredible Hulk (1977) TV series. In both, he played a man who could change his form (in the Twilight Zone, he could change his face; in the Hulk, he could also turn into a Hulk). In both, he planned to run away with a woman, but before he could, was accosted in his hotel room by a man with a gun. In both, he escaped, and changed form, only to be shot to death by still another person with a gun, who only shot him because he was in his other form. In both, he reverted to his original appearance in death.
In the 1970s, he put himself through the seminary to become an Episcopal priest.
Townes was ordained as an Episcopal priest in St. Paul's Cathedral on March 16, 1974.
Retired from acting in 1989 and moved back to Huntsville.
