how to contact an obscure actor/singer

[T. Shane Doyle]

How do I find out which nursing home to send a fan-type letter to a 1950s singer/actor named Byron Palmer? According to my sources, he's about 80 and still kicking around. I wish to send him a card, as I'm a big fan. Is this possible?

You could try calling SAG (screen actors guild) in NY or LA, they may have a current contact for him. If they don't, the Academy of Motion Picture Arts & Sciences in LA has a great research dept you could try at (310) 247-3020.
