Jeffrey Hunter ( November 25 , 1926 - May 27 , 1969 ) was a film and television actor. He was born Henry Herman McKinnies, Jr. in New Orleans , Louisiana , and raised in Milwaukee , Wisconsin , where he began acting in local theater and radio in his early teens. He served stateside in the United States Navy in World War II , then studied drama at Northwestern University .
Jeffrey Hunter has formed a new company, Principiant Hotel Company, L. C., and purchased the Hotel Fort Des Moines from his partners. He has ... acquired the Tenth Street Parkade, a 440-stall parking ramp across from the Hotel at Tenth and Walnut Streets.
Jeffrey Hunter stars in the titular role in this expansive version of Jesus' story that hews faithfully to the New Testament. A moving Sermon on the Mount, a vixenish Salome dancing for King Herod and the gripping crucifixion are just a few of the memorable set pieces. Narrator Orson Welles keeps the almost three-hour film from plodding. This ambitious biblical adaptation is a fine Hollywood version of the greatest story ever told.

In June 1999, Principiant Hotel Company, L. C., owned by Jeffrey Hunter, purchased the Hotel Fort Des Moines and adjoining property including the parking ramp at 10th and Walnut Streets. The Hotel Fort Des Moines was previously owned by a partnership, which included Mr. Hunter. Mr. Hunter resides in Des Moines. He has begun a $2.6 million project including restoration and upgrade to the hotel and necessary renovation of the parking structure. Revenues are not sufficient to fund both hotel and ramp renovation and the company has secured a $1 million loan from Iowa State Bank to supplement $1.2 million of cash flow needed to carry out the project. A request is being made to the City for a $400,000 loan to fund the remaining financial gap.
Seine bemerkenswerteste Rolle spielte Jeffrey Hunter als Martin Pawley in John Fords Western "Der schwarze Falke" ("The Searchers", 1956) an der Seite von John Wayne. Für die Darstellung bekam er exzellente Kritiken und war an einem Novum der Filmgeschichte beteiligt: Erstmals wurde ein Film durch ein im Fernsehen ausgestrahltes, mehrteiliges Making Of beworben, eingeleitet durch einen Fernsehauftritt Hunters. Bekannter wurde er jedoch durch seine Verkörperung von Jesus Christus in dem Monumentalfilm König der Könige (Regie: Nicholas Ray).
