Actor Born: 1921 Death: 1942 Biography:"Donald Haines" was eight years old when he joined Hal Roach's "Our Gang" troupe in 1929. Haines appeared in Roach shorts until 1931; one of these was "The First Seven Years" (1930), in which he fought with "Jackie Cooper" over the affections of "Mary Ann Jackson". The adversarial Haines-Cooper screen relationship would extend over a decade, with Donald and Jackie coming to blows (or threatening to do so) in such features as "Skippy" (1931), "A Feller Needs a Friend" (1932) and "Seventeen" (1940). Haines' other roles of note included Jerry Cruncher Jr. in "Tale of Two Cities" (1935), Alabama in "Boys Town" (1938) and "Men of Boys Town" (1940), and Skinny in six of Monogram's "East Side Kids" films. Donald Haines died while serving in WW II. ~ Hal Erickson, All Movie Guide
