Ray Bolger (born 10 January 1904 in Dorchester, Massachusetts, died 15 January 1987 in Los Angeles, California) was an American theatre, film and television actor.

Bolger was a Vaudevillian actor as one-half of a comedy duo. Like many actors of his era, Bolger's skills combined acting with song and dance skills.

He was signed on by MGM Studios in 1936 for a role as himself in the movie, The Great Ziefield. Various combination acting, singing and dancing roles followed, which culminated in what was to be his most memorable role as the Scarecrow in the classic film, The Wizard of Oz.

Bolger's contract with MGM ended shortly after, but the actor went on to the new world of television, starring in his own situation comedy, Where's Raymond? (later called The Ray Bolger Show) in 1953.

Bolger won a Tony Award, as well as two Donaldson Awards in 1948 for the musical Where's Charley?. In 1980, he was elected to the Theatre Hall of Fame.

Bolger appeared as a guest in many more television roles and a few film roles throughout the latter half of the 20th Century. In the documentary film, That's Dancing!, Bolger co-hosted the film with many other classic and contemporary dancing actors, including Oz co-star Judy Garland's daughter, Liza Minnelli.

Bolger portrayed Vector, the android on Paradeen in the Original Series episode "Greetings From Earth".

Bolger was the last surviving member of the four central characters of The Wizard of Oz. He died of cancer in 1987.

Additional Information

Captain Raymond "Raygun" Lai is presumed to have been a Colonial pilot in the days when the Viper Mark II was in active service prior to its successor, the Viper Mark VII.

A Viper with Lai's name (tail number 8547) was part of a squadron of Viper Mark IIs in the Galactica Museum.

After word of renewed Cylon attacks on the Colonies and with no ordnance for the recently-decommissioned Galactica and few Viper Mark VIIs on board, Commander William Adama orders the deployment of the museum Vipers in the ship's defense. Lai's Viper is piloted by Kara Thrace in Galactica's first sortie since the Cylon War.

Starbuck's skillful piloting of Lai's old Viper, despite a strike that damaged one of its engines, saves Galactica from possibly fatal damage after Starbuck shoots down two of three kiloton Cylon nuclear missiles fired by a Raider that target the old battlestar (TRS: "Miniseries, Night 1").

Notes

  • Kara Thrace in Raygun's Viper (TRS: "Miniseries, Night 1").
    Ray Lai was a concept artist for the 2003 Miniseries. His name appears in the show as an honorific.
  • in the episode "The Passage," Raymond "Raygun" Lai can be seen on the air group organization chart in the squadron led by Kara Thrace. Since this mentioned-only character existed in the long past of the series's characters, possibly during or shortly after the Cylon War, this mention on the chart is a continuity error.
