Timeline
American B-Western star and singing cowboy Monte Hale was born Samuel Buren Ely in 1919 in Ada, Oklahoma, to Herod and Helen Ely. He learned to sing and play guitar at an early age. In Houston and later Galveston, Texas, he played for vaudeville shows and local rodeos. During World War II a job as a replacement guitar player with the Stars Over Texas War Bond Drive led to a friendship with several Republic Pictures stars and staff. At the completion of the tour, the Republic contingent recommended young Hale to studio president Herbert J. Yates. Hale went to California and met Yates, who saw promise in the tall, good-looking musician, and signed him to a seven-year contract, and promptly discarded his birth name for the more appealing name of Monte Hale.
After a quick apprenticeship in a couple of bit parts, Hale was given the lead in Home on the Range (1946), which led to a five-year run as one of Republic's popular singing-cowboy stars.
Featured in "Monte Hale Western" comic books from 1948-1956, as well as various other Western comic books including "Real Western Hero," "Western Hero," "Six-Gun Heroes," "Movie Comics," and "Cowboy Western Comics."
Following the demise of the "B" western in the early 1950s, Hale toured the country as part of a musical cowboy act in rodeos and circuses.
A good friend of cowboy icon Gene Autry, he was a founder of the Autry National Center of the American West in 1988. Located near the Griffith Park Zoo in Los Angeles, he donated his own white hat, guns, gun belt and other prized belongings for the museum. His wife Joanne was a successful businesswoman and held the post of executive director from the beginning until retiring in 1999. Monty served on the board from the outset.
He received a star on the Hollywood Walk of Fame for his work in motion pictures on November 12, 2004. At a ceremony held at the Star's location, 7000 Hollywood Blvd., Monte was surrounded by family, friends, special guests, and fans who celebrated this very special honor.
