Entertainer/actor, Sheb Wooley, the winner of the Country Music Association's 1968, "Comedian Of The Year Award," is one of those rare artists who, over the years has consistently enjoyed success in both Nashville and Hollywood.
To country fans he has perhaps best been known for his million dollar selling novelty tunes like Don't Go Near The Eskimos, Harper Valley P.T.A. #2 and Fifteen Beers Ago, which were recorded under the pseudonym "Ben Colder." He is also known for his more serious country hits like That's My Pa a #1 Hit in 1962, and other songs which he recorded under his own name. Along the way however, Wooley who resided in Hollywood from 1950-1979 carved out a second career as an actor. He has appeared in more than 50 feature films. Just a few of the more notables are: "High Noon" with Gary Cooper, and Grace Kelly, (he played the killer Ben Miller). "Rocky Mountain" with Errol Flynn, the "War Wagon", with John Wayne and Kirk Douglas, "Rio Bravo" with John Wayne, "Distant Drums" with Gary Cooper, and Giant with James Dean and Elizabeth Taylor.

King started DonKingTV.com in March of 2008, accomplishing another first in the world of boxing by starting his own network via the Internet. He featured Cory Spinks and Devon Alexander live in separate bouts for free from St. Louis, Mo. That event garnered attention from 195 countries around the world.
King said, “DonKingTV.com is the people’s network. Your voice needs to be heard. Let your voice be heard. I want all the bloggers and all the boxing fans around the world to help me to help you in bringing boxing back to the people. I am a promoter of the people, for the people, by the people, and my magic lies in my people ties.
