'Fritz' is the son of famed and brilliant Charles Macarthur (the screenwriter) and his mom was Helen Hayes. He spent a couple of years as a Disney Teen Hunk before settling in to four decades of steady, competent acting. Matthew Broderick played his lady-killer dad in 'Mrs. Parker and the Vicious Circle'

Most remembered film role, maybe. I hear the name "James MacArthur," the first thing I think of is "Book 'em, Dano." Come to think of it, that was on a tropical island too.
