Erich Hilliard ‘Ricky’ Nelson was born on 8th May 1940 in Teaneck, New Jersey, the second son of big band leader Ozzie Nelson and big band vocalist Harriet Hilliard Nelson. Harriet remained in New Jersey with Ricky and his older brother David while Ozzie toured the U.S. with his Nelson Orchestra.  In 1941, Ricky remained in Tenafly, NJ in the care of his grandmother while his parents and older brother moved to Hollywood, where Ozzie and Harriet were appearing on the ’41-’42 season of comedian Red Skelton’s The Raleigh Cigarette Hour radio show.

In 1953, encouraged by the success of the theatrical film Here Come the Nelsons, Ozzie was convinced it was time to transition from radio to television, and The Adventures of Ozzie and Harriet made its TV debut on 3 October 1952. The programme would run until 3 September 1966, making it one of the longest running sit-coms in U.S. television history.
