#Quote
1[on his lack of sibling rivalry over Rick's larger fanbase] We were 3 1/2 years apart, so when Rick was funny I laughed with everyone else. And when he became a popular singer, I rooted for him.
2It's an awfully big load to carry, to be everyone's fantasy family.
3We would keep up the front of this totally problemless, happy-go-lucky group. There might have been a tremendous battle in our home, but if someone from outside came in, it would be as if the director yelled, "Roll 'em". We'd fall right into our stage roles.
#Fact
1He was awarded a Star on the Hollywood Walk of Fame at 1501 Vine Street in Hollywood, California on May 9, 1996.
2Following his death, he was cremated and interred at Westwood Village Memorial Park in Los Angeles, California.
3Uncle of Tracy Nelson, Matthew Nelson, Gunnar Nelson and Sam Nelson.
4Father of Daniel and James Blair from his first marriage. Adopted his second wife's three children from their marriage.
5His mother, singer-actress Harriet Nelson, appeared with him in the dramatic film Smash-Up on Interstate 5 (1976).
6For the film The Big Circus (1959), he had to learn how to be a catcher in a trapeze act. He later appeared professionally as a catcher.
7David and his brother Ricky made their film debuts in the family feature Here Come the Nelsons (1952), a comedy released about eight months before the family debuted on television.
8He and Ricky were once dubbed "The Crown Princes of Radio" by Radio Life magazine.
9The radio show began without the Nelson boys. Ozzie and Harriet were hesitant about steering them into show business. However, after a young friend, Lindsay Crosby, made a guest appearance on the radio program with his father, Bing Crosby, the boys campaigned to have their parents let them appear. Ozzie and Harriet eventually relented and the boys were a success especially when the show transferred to television.
10Growing up on his family's television series, his character wound up becoming a lawyer before the series ended. In real-life, David took an interest in directing and cut his teeth directing a number of episodes for his father on the series.
11Stepfather of producer/assistant director John Nelson.
12Stopped by a ticket agent at John Wayne Airport after letters in the name "David Nelson" were red flagged for terrorists. Two police officers recognized Nelson and allowed him to board his flight. [December 2002]
13Married June Blair at Forest Lawn Memorial Park's Church of the Hills. Brother Ricky was Best Man.
14Adopted father of Teri Nelson, who was married to Chuck Woolery.
15Older brother of actor/singer Ricky Nelson.
