My apologies, Cliff, I did misinterpret the wording for your clue about Lita Ford.
To answer your question: I wasn’t in any movies. I was hired to play on a studio session for Joan Jett, adding keyboards to two tracks which were to be used on a movie soundtrack. (At that stage I already knew her). Don’t recall the name of the movie … I was pretty in-demand in those days, going from studio to studio, with my cartage guys transporting, setting up and tearing down all my keyboard equipment from venue to venue. |

Joan Jett went to the same high school as me!

OK, since I have one ready …
I was born in Washington, D.C., on July 28, 1937. My early life was a troubled one, with my family’s stability threatened by my father’s alcoholism. I dropped out of high school during my junior year after staging a series of burglaries. |

I also recruited others, including a close friend, my brother, and my son into a growing spy ring that I maintained after my retirement from the military.

I'm surprised no one has got this yet!
I was arrested in 1985 after my ex-wife and one of my daughters informed the FBI of my espionage activities. The rest of the spy ring was also rounded up. |

This mystery personality was the notorious American spy, John Anthony Walker. Books have been written about him and his family, and there was also a TV mini-series. Walker received a life sentence and ultimately died in prison. His son was sentenced to 25 years in prison, and his brother received a $250,000 fine and a life sentence. His friend, who refused to plead guilty -- insisting that he did not know that the stolen documents were being sold to the Soviet Union -- received the stiffest penalty of all: a $410,000 fine and 365 years in prison. Surprised no one guessed it. Who wants to go next? |

I never got to see American Bandstand, so I'll just take a wild guess based on approximate year of birth: Frankie Avalon?
