Rusty Hamer (February 15, 1947 - January 18, 1990) was a United States actor. He grew up on TV as the freckle faced son of TV Dad, Danny Thomas, on "Make Room for Daddy" (1953-1964). As a young 5-year-old child actor his wise-cracking behavior made him a popular character during the show's 335 episode run.
He attempted a brief return to show business as a medical student (in the show "Danny Thomas in Make Room for Grandaddy", 1970-1971) but the show was cancelled after one season.
Rusty died of a single gunshot wound to the head from a .357 Magnum in DeRidder, Louisiana. He had reportedly become deeply depressed and delusional with few prospects ahead of him.
