- William was a character actor, whose popularity was due to hundreds of appearances in soap operas.
Going from stage to screen, William had an undistinguished movie career in the '40s which ran out of steam after about four years.
But in the '50s, he would find his calling on the small screen. On Young Dr. Malone (1958), he played the father for five years. He was also cast in Another World (1964), The Edge of Night (1956), Search for Tomorrow (1951) and A World Apart (1970). One noteworthy credit was that he was part of the continuing cast on the first hour-long television drama series, The Mask (1954).
By the '70s and '80s, he appeared in a number of television mini-series and television movies. On stage, he appeared in plays by Eugene O'Neill and Edward Albee. - Director

Although born in North Dakota, Francis D. Lyon's film career began in England as an editor on several prestigious J. Arthur Rank productions. Coming to Hollywood, he worked as an editor or supervising editor on numerous films, and won an Academy Award for editing Body and Soul (1947). Turning to directing in 1955, Lyon's output has been mostly routine, although Disney's The Great Locomotive Chase (1956), based on a true Civil War incident, was an exciting, well-made adventure. In the 1960s, after churning out several low-grade sci-fi epics, Lyon turned to episodic TV series.- Art Director
