for some time.
Later, Blackmer joined the Uni

distinguished performance," and the
Donaldson Award, 1949-50, as the
"best actor."
Among his many awards and hon
ors, Mr. Blackmer was given an Hon-
onary Doctor of Literature degree
from Catawba College in 1940, and in
1964 was presented with both the
North Carolina's Distinguished Citi
zen award and a Doctor of Humanities
degree from his alma mater, the Uni
versity of North Carolina. Blackmer
is a Council Member of AEA, on the
national board of directors of
AFTRA, on the board of directors of
The Players, and holds membership in
a number of theatre organizations,
among them The Lambs and the Caro
lina Playmakers.
Mr. Blackmer's film career hpgan
in 1914, since when he has appeared
in more than 100 movies, the latest
being "Rosemary's Baby."
