Photograph by Howard Decker / LADailyMirror.com
[Howard says: The lady in the fur coat is Julia Jean Mildred Frances Turner, known as Lana, with her newly minted (seventh, I think) husband Ronald Pellar, known as Ronald Dante and Dr. Dante. They are shown arriving at LAX after being married in Las Vegas May 9, 1969. Pellar/Dante was an illusionist in Vegas. As I recall only UPI Photos and myself were there to get photos of the newlyweds. I got a dozen shots and sold them all. The lady on the left is obviously a fan. Those were the days, my friend, we thought they’d never end….]
[Please give Howard a big thanks for sharing his photos with us! You may not know but Howard also covered the famous incident in which a drunken Gail Russell plowed her convertible into Jan’s Restaurant on Beverly Boulevard in 1957. — lrh]
Howard Decker (a.k.a. Fibber) sends along another mystery picture from his career as a photographer. Thanks, Howard!

It’s Lana Turner and her husband from 1969-72, Ronald Dante (real name, Ronald Pellar). He was a hypnotist and convicted criminal (Lana, Lana!).

Wow, I knew two of your guesses, Noel & Lance. Definitely not either one. My wild guess is that the guy is Charlie Manson’s imagined mentor, Terry Melcher. Or Blake Edwards? But that’s just a shot in the dark.

Not Terry Melcher or Blake Edwards, but I can’t place him. He looks familiar….

I’ve always felt so sorry for the *legitimate* Ron Dante – the singer/songwriter/session musician behind The Archies and The Cuff Links – he’s probably spent his entire career saying “No, I’m not *that* Ron Dante…”, and I know from reading Lana Turner’s and Cheryl Crane’s respective autobios that the faux Dante did little to discourage that confusion.

This is Lana Turner and Ron Dante. Hypnotist …I know because Ron and I dated in Chicago when he was appearing at Club Cairo. Charming, extremely handsome man.
Sooo charming! Delightful.
