Henry Kulky

Henry Kulky (born Henry Kulakowich; August 11, 1911 – February 12, 1965) was an American actor and professional wrestler from Hastings-on-Hudson, New York. He is best remembered for his role as Chief Petty Officer Curly Jones in season 1 of Voyage to the Bottom of the Sea. Kulky began his career as a boxer before transitioning into training wrestlers at St. Matthew's Lyceum. In 1939, Stanislaus Zbyszko convinced him to compete professionally, and he wrestled throughout South America as Bomber Kulkavich. The number of matches he competed in is uncertain, with claims ranging from 172 to 7,000 wins. Kulky turned to acting in the 1950s, thanks to his association with Mike Mazurki.More
