Hollywood almost destroyed him
Jay North, a name forever linked to classic TV, shot to fame as the adorable troublemaker Dennis Mitchell on Dennis the Menace.

Born August 3, 1951, in Hollywood, California, North got his start in showbiz early and quickly won over audiences with his charm and spot-on comedic timing.

His big break came in 1959 when North, as a 6-year-old, landed the lead in CBS’s hit sitcom based on Hank Ketcham’s beloved comic strip. As the spirited and often mischievous Dennis, North became a household name and helped turn the show into one of the most iconic family series of its era.
