Early yearsPrentiss was born Paul Edward Prentiss[3] in Chicago, Illinois.[2] He attended the University of Iowa.[4] RadioRadio historian Jim Harmon noted, in his book The Great Radio Heroes, "Ed Prentiss was not the first actor to play Captain Midnight, contrary to some published reports."[5] After Bill Bouchey had the role in the program's second season, Prentiss auditioned for the third season, got the part, and continued as Captain Midnight for seven years.[5] On The Guiding Light soap opera, Prentiss played Ned (a "neglected youth") and was the program's "omniscient host."[6] Beginning in 1943, Prentiss was narrator for an hour-long block consisting of three soap operas: Today's Children, The Guiding Light and Woman in White. The three programs had interconnecting story lines, with Prentiss's narration "introducing each program segment and linking all three together."[7] Prentiss's other roles on radio programs included those shown in the table below.
Prentiss had his own syndicated program, This Is The Story. An ad for the 15-minute program described it as follows: "Ed Prentiss, America's greatest story teller ... offers true and unusual tales, each with a surprisingly different ending."[10] He also was a regular on Arnold Grimm's Daughter,[11] Painted Dreams, Bud Barton,[12] The Romance of Helen Trent, Springtime and Harvest[13] and Holland Housewarming.{{r|rp|page1=153}} FilmPrentiss appeared in Westbound (1959)[14] and The FBI Story (1959).[15] TelevisionPrentiss played Dr. Snyder on As the World Turns.[16] He was one of the hosts of Action Autographs,[17] was the host for Majority Rules.{{r|etvs|page1=643}} and played Edward Elliott on Morning Star.{{r|etvs|page1=716}} He also was the announcer for That's O'Toole.[18] He also played roles in various TV Westerns of the late 1950s-early '60s, often as a sheriff. He is easily recognized by his voice, as well as his physical appearance. Personal lifePrentiss married Ivah Davidson on November 21, 1941.[19] They had a son, born September 14, 1943.[20] Notes{{notelist}}References1. ^1 [https://www.findagrave.com/memorial/83679691/ed-prentiss Ed Prentiss] at Find a Grave 2. ^1 DeLong, Thomas A.
