...frontiersman mold so well in the five Crockett episodes of ABC's Disneyland that he went on to play Daniel Boone in the 1960s NBC series of the same name. (Boone, as the ballad went, "was a man, yes a big man!") Parker starred in such movies as Old Yeller and Westward Ho, the Wagons! But in the years following his TV fame, he set his sights on real estate development and started a family winery in California. Parker, who was married to his wife Marcella for 50 years, had two children, 11 grandkids and a great-grandchild...

He's not a yeller and can sometimes seem mellow to the point where people think he's not paying attention. "Most people throw very, very sharp elbows to get a seat at the table and that's not Matt's style," says Brad Queisser, who met Nugen working at the Democratic National Committee (DNC) in 1998 and is now a vice president at mCapitol Management. "He's quiet so people underestimate him. Underestimating him could be the biggest...
