Michael Dunn Facts
Phoebe Dorin, Dunn's singing partner and "The Wild Wild West" (1965) co-star, is extensively interviewed about their relationship in Tom Weaver's book "Science Fiction Confidential" (McFarland & Co., 2002).

Rumors of suicide have been unfounded. He did develop an acute alcohol problem and liver cirrhosis probably hastened his early death. The general consensus is that he died of heart failure in his sleep as a result of the disease.

In the 60s, encouraged by actor Roddy McDowall, he and actress Phoebe Dorin formed a slightly bizarre but popular New York song-and-comedy nightclub act, which eventually led to their being cast on TV's "The Wild Wild West" (1965) as evil Dr. Loveless and his assistant, Antoinette.
