Tombstone Tuesday

Thomas Edward ("Tuck") Grace
Thomas Edward (Tuck) Grace was the fourth-born child of Edwin Booth Grace and Lillie Margaret Brown. As an Army Sgt, Tuck served his country in Italy during WWII. After returning home, he graduated with a Bachelor of Science degree from Memphis State University in 1950, where he was recognized in Who's Who Among Students for his academic success. In 1966, he was conferred as a member of Omicron Delta Kappa, a national leadership honor society. Also known as "The Circle," membership in ODK is one of the highest collegiate honors one can receive.

In 1951, Tuck moved to New York City to pursue his career in acting. A member of the Screen Actors Guild and AEA, his credits include performances in MASH, Splendor in the Grass, and A Face in the Crowd as well as television roles in The Edge of Night and The Guiding Light.
