‘GWTW’ actors visit Fayetteville today

The two child actors who played Beau Wilkes, Melanie and Ashley Wilkes’ son, in “Gone With the Wind” will be visiting the Holliday-Dorsey-Fife House Museum today from 10 a.m. until noon.

Patrick Curtis doesn’t seem to recall the film since he was only a few months old at the time. Mickey Kuhn played Beau at age seven. Both will be available to answer questions as well as sign autographs. For a small fee, photos of the actors can be purchased.

The museum boasts several famous families who have occupied the property since 1855. The house has ties to Margaret Mitchell and the Gone With the Wind room serves as a tribute to this prominent writer.

The Holliday-Dorsey-Fife House Museum is a Greek revival antebellum house that has long been a city landmark.

The museum is located at 140 Lanier Ave. West and is open Thursday through Saturday from 10 a.m.-5 p.m. Admission is $5 for adults and $2 for children. For further information, call Fayetteville Main Street at 770-461-6029.
