The late Michael Landon was widely regarded as one of the greatest performers Hollywood has ever produced,
thanks to his portrayal as Little Jose Cartwright on the legendary western series Bonanza and Little House on the Prairie’s Charles Ingalls.
His influence on Hollywood was immense, and he catapulted the careers of several up-and-coming performers and actresses to new heights.
Landon made an unprecedented 22 appearances on the cover of TV Guide over his extensive television career. Along with Lucile Ball, he accomplished this remarkable achievement.
After appearing in several critically acclaimed films, including Highway to Heaven, Landon was honored with a star on the Hollywood Walk of Fame in 1984.
