Who was Gage Clarke?
Gage Clarke was an American character actor best known for his role as the principal in Mr. Peepers. His other work consisted largely of one-shot appearances in television series such as seven major supporting roles as different characters in Maverick, twelve roles in Gunsmoke, Mister Ed, Laramie, Ben Casey, Checkmate, The Twilight Zone, The Real McCoys, four roles in Alfred Hitchcock Presents, Bourbon Street Beat, Thriller, Have Gun Will Travel, and many others, as well as movies including I Want to Live!, The Bad Seed, The Brothers Karamazov, and The Absent-Minded Professor.

He made two guest appearances on Perry Mason, including the role of Frederick Rollins in "The Case of the Glittering Goldfish" in 1959.
