Bob Hoy
In his work as a stuntman, Bob specializes in horse work, although he has also been called upon to double in fight scenes, do car work and handle high falls. The films in which lead actors and others were doubled for stunts are too numerous to mention but include: Operation Petticoat, The Defiant Ones, Spartacus, Tobruk, They Call Me Bruce, Saskatchewan, River of No Return, To Hell and Back, Drumbeat, Wings of the Hawk, and Revenge of the Creature From the Black Lagoon. With stunt credits on more than 30 television series and twice that many features, there is no doubt that Bob has earned his lifetime membership in the Stuntmen's Association, of which he is a founding member. He is also a member of the Academy of Motion Pictures, Arts and Sciences, Directors Guild of America, AFTRA, and the Screen Actors Guild.
