The wonderful dog Lassie is one of the great four legged screen characters of all time. As a mark of the character's status in the film capital of the worlds, Lassie is one of only three animal characters awarded a star on the Hollywood Walk of Fame in Los Angeles. Lassie was created by author Eric Knight in 1939 for a short story for the Pennsylvanian Saturday Evening Post. Two years later, Knight translated the story into a novel, Lassie Come Home, which was filmed, featuring a very young Elizabeth Taylor. Numerous films and a very long running television series (from 1954 until 1973) followed for the famous, charming and most courageous collie dog in history.
