Ken Wayne

Ken Wayne (1925–1993) was an Australian actor of radio, theatre, film and television. He made his film debut in Sons of Matthew (1949) and appeared in a number of movies including Dust in the Sun (1958). He was also well known for his work in radio, particularly for playing private eye Larry Kent in the series I Hate Crime. According to colleague and friend Charles Tingwell, being so identified with Larry Kent hurt Wayne from being cast in other roles. He worked for 13 years in London but returned to Australia in 1972.
