He’s been in the business for a long time

Kurt was born into a show business family. His father Bing Russell was also an actor while his mother Louise Russell was a dancer, so it’s no surprise that he followed in their footsteps.

He made his movie debut at the age of 12 with an uncredited appearance in 1963 film It Happened at the World’s Fair. This breakthrough led to a slew of roles for the young Kurt.
