'''Lee Marvin''' (1924-87) was an actor famous for playing villains in [[Hollywood]] movies. He was also a veteran, a recipient of the [[Purple Heart]] who was wounded combat in [[World War II]], who is buried at [[Arlington National Cemetery]].<ref>https://www.washingtonexaminer.com/21-famous-people-you-didnt-know-were-buried-at-arlington-national-cemetery</ref>

He was the tough guy in "The Dirty Dozen" (1967), "The Man Who Shot Liberty Valance" (1962), "Cat Ballou" (1965), and "Sergeant Riker" (1968).

Prematurely gray with a gravel voice, he got his start in acting by filling in for someone who was sick that day in a theater in [[New York City]].<ref>https://www.findagrave.com/memorial/1600/lee-marvin</ref>

A lawsuit against him by his girlfriend set a legal precedent for "palimony".

He died prematurely of a heart attack in Tucson, [[Arizona]], at age 63.
