About John Wayne: John Wayne (May 26, 1907 – June 11, 1979) was a 20th-century American actor, director, and producer. Also known by the nickname “Duke,” Wayne was a top box office draw for three decades. He won an Academy Award in 1969 for his performance in the movie, True Grit, and was a very prominent, Hollywood Republican. John Wayne loved his country. He was very outspoken about his patriotism and he stood firmly against the communist threat in his day.  John Wayne’s movies are considered classics and he remains a very popular American icon to this day.

Trivia About John Wayne

Why was John Wayne nicknamed Duke?

The source of John Wayne’s hard-hitting nickname is actually very sweet. As a child, John Wayne had a pet Airedale named — you guessed it — Duke. John clearly loved the name, because he adopted it as his nickname (yes, it seems that John Wayne gave himself his own nickname). Around town, young John and his dog were known as “Big Duke” and “Little Duke.” Of course, “the Duke” kept his nickname into adulthood and brought it with him to Hollywood.
