John Agar

John G. Agar (January 31, 1921 - April 7, 2002) was a successful Hollywood actor who ascended to celebrity shortly after World War II. He is perhaps best remembered as Shirley Temple's first husband (1945-1950) and for starring in the "Sands of Iwo Jima" alongside John Wayne; however, aficionados of B-movies regard him as a cult icon for the films he produced in that class, such as The Mole People and The Brain from Planet Arous. His marriage to Temple lasted five years and they had one daughter together, Linda Agar.
