Michael Dunn (born Gary Neil Miller; October 20, 1934 – August 30, 1973) was an American actor and singer with dwarfism. He was nominated for the Tony Award for Best Featured Actor in a Play for The Ballad of the Sad Café, and for the Academy Award for Best Supporting Actor in Stanley Kramer's Ship of Fools, but is best remembered for a recurring role as antagonist Dr. Miguelito Quixote Loveless in the 1960s television adventure series The Wild Wild West. He inspired a number of later actors with dwarfism, including Zelda Rubinstein, Eric the Actor, and Mark Povinelli.[1]
