Thomas Lee "Tommy" Kirk (born December 10, 1941, in Louisville, Kentucky) is a former American actor, and later a businessman. Kirk was discovered by talent agents at the age of thirteen in a production of Eugene O`Neill`s "Ah, Wilderness!" at the Pasadena Playhouse in Pasadena, California. In 1956, he appeared in the NBC western anthology series Frontier in the episode entitled "The Devil and Dr. O`Hara".
Hired by Walt Disney Productions, he was cast as a clean-cut teenager in The Hardy Boys serial feature which was aired in the The Mickey Mouse Club television series in 1956 and 1957. Kirk played Joe Hardy opposite Tim Considine as older brother Frank Hardy in two serials: The Mystery of the Applegate Treasure (September 21, 1956 - February 1, 1957), based on the book The Tower Treasure, and the original story The Mystery of Ghost Farm (September 13 - December 20, 1957). Kirk went on to starring roles in a succession of successful Disney feature films, in both dramatic and comedic settings. He played Travis Coates in Old Yeller (1957), an adventure story about a boy and his heroic dog. He then played a dog himself in The Shaggy Dog (1959), a comedy about a boy inventor, Wilby Daniels, who is repeatedly transformed into an Old English Sheep Dog under the influence of a magic ring. He had a more straightforward role as middle son Ernst Robinson in another adventure film, Swiss Family Robinson (1960). Kirk then played the "scrambled egghead" student inventor Merlin Jones in two comedies, The Misadventures of Merlin Jones (1964) and The Monkey`s Uncle (1965). Other major Disney roles for Tommy Kirk included that of college student Biff Hawk in The Absent-Minded Professor (1961) and its sequel, Son of Flubber (1963), and as Grumio in the fairy tale fantasy Babes in Toyland.
In 1963, however, Disney chose not to renew Kirk`s contract upon discovering Kirk had been having a sexual relationship with a 15-year-old boy. Walt Disney himself reportedly fired Kirk. Yet in a bow to audience wishes, the studio re-hired him for the Merlin Jones sequel, The Monkey`s Uncle. Kirk`s acting career tapered off during the 1960s, hampered by the transition to adulthood, drug use, and "personal problems." Eventually he left show business, gave up drugs, and succeeded in starting his own carpet-cleaning business in the San Fernando Valley north of Los Angeles. He continued to act occasionally, however, including in the R-rated spoof, Attack of the 60 Foot Centerfold. As of 2006, Kirk had more than thirty feature films roles to his credit.
Tommy Kirk was inducted as a Disney Legend in on October 9, 2006, alongside his old co-stars Tim Considine and Kevin Corcoran. His other repeat co-stars, Annette Funicello and Fred MacMurray, had already been inducted (in 1992 and 1987, respectively). Also in 2006, the first of Kirk`s Hardy Boys serials was issued on DVD in the fifth "wave" of the Walt Disney Treasures series.
