Billy Green Bush on AllMovie

In films from 1971, Billy Green Bush has usually projected a good-ol'-boy image. Though there were the occasional villains in his TV and film manifest, Bush was most often seen as sheriffs and state troopers. His credits extend from such landmark 1970s efforts as Five Easy Pieces (1971) and Alice Doesn't Live Here Anymore (1974) to such 1990s potboilers as Friday the 13th Pt. IX: Jason Goes to Hell (1993). Bush has also twice essayed the role of Vernon Presley, first in the 1988 TV movie Elvis and Me, then in the short-lived weekly series Elvis (1990). Billy "Green" Bush is the father of twin actresses Lindsay Greenbush and Sidney Greenbush.
