Marilyn Hare (October 13, 1923 – October 9, 1981) was an American actress, singer, and television personality active from the late 1930s through the early 1960s. A daughter of radio star Ernie Hare, one half of the famed duo The Happiness Boys, she began performing as a teenager in radio before moving into motion pictures with Republic Pictures during the 1940s. Best remembered for her World War II morale-boosting “10,000 Kisses” campaign, Hare later became a popular figure in early Los Angeles television, hosting programs such as You're Never Too Old and True to Life Theater.
