For eight seasons, Paul Petersen starred as Jeff Stone in the classic television series, The Donna Reed Show. However, it’s what this man has done since that time that is the real story here.
Let’s begin in 1955. Paul was one of the original Disney Mouseketeers for all of three weeks; he was then summarily dismissed, as he revealed in his book, Walt, Mickey and Me. Apparently, the young actor had a disagreement with someone else on the show and before you could say, “Hey there, hi there, ho there, you’re as welcome as can be,” Paul was no longer wearing mouse ears.
