Truly a lover of life, fast cars, horses and his friends, Chuck House came from a family entrenched in the early days of film and television. His father was a famous stuntman and his uncle was actor Andy Devine. Although he studied business in college, the lure of the film industry was in his veins and Chuck House became a make-up artist and Local 706 member after serving his apprenticeship in 1964. Throughout the 60s and 70s he worked on many movies-of-the week and the ABC Afterschool Specials. His talents were displayed in every genre of tv movies and feature films. In the late 1970s and 80s he moved primarily into television series - Hunter, Fantasy Island, CHiPs, Amazing Stories and Baywatch. Amazing Stories won both a Primetime Emmy and a nomination for Chuck. He worked with Bill Murray and John Candy on Stripes, and Chuck was working on the feature film Wagons East in Mexico when Candy tragically died of a heart attack.
