 Reginald Denny (November 20, 1891-June 16, 1967) was a man of many talents and
interests. He was born on November 20, 1891, in England, and grew up to become an
actor, aviator, and airplane designer. Denny began his career in show business working
with a stage group and later toured parts of the world in his early 20s.
During World War I, Denny served as an aviator with the Royal Air Force. He resumed
his acting career when the war ended, but he also kept up with his airplane passion.
He moved to Hollywood to work in the film industry and opened a model store called
"Reginald Denny's Hobby Shop."
In the 1930s, Denny's model kit, the Denny Jr., became very popular. His company,
Reginald Denny Industries, also produced Dennymite engines that were frequently
used by modelers, as well as Jimmie Allen kits and other kits for children.
During World War II, Denny's company made RC target drones for the military,
called Radioplanes. Norma Jeane Mortenson, who later became famous as Marilyn Monroe,
worked on building these planes in the shop and was "discovered" there.
