Marlon Brando, FO5GJ. One of the best-known names in cinematic as well
as Amateur Radio circles, actor Marlon Brando, died in Los Angeles

Known to hams worldwide as KE6PZH and FO5GJ, Brando was listed on the
FCC database as Martin Brandeaux. He was on the air occasionally
through the years with his FO5 call sign from his private island in
French Polynesia.

In an interview with Larry King on CNN in 1994, Brando confirmed his
continued interest in Amateur Radio. In response to a caller's
question, he said ham radio provided him with the opportunity to just
be himself.

The iconoclastic actor was best known for his roles as Stanley
Kowalski in "A Streetcar Named Desire," a dockworker in "On the
Waterfront," and Vito Corleone in "The Godfather." He was nominated
for eight Academy Awards and won twice.'
