John Tartaglia, of Sherman Oaks - at the time, was that man. In fact, the last actor for whom he had performed a footprints ceremony was Mr. Eddie Murphy in 1987 - just a year before his passing. However, John was given the the opportunity to perform his first ceremony for actress Jean Simmons in 1953. All this, by chance, as John was initially hired as the Interior Decorator for Grauman's Chinese Theatre.
