John Ethan Morrison (born February 22, 1962) known professionally as Ethan Wayne, is an American former actor and former stuntman. He now manages John Wayne Enterprises and serves as the director of the John Wayne Cancer Foundation and created its Team DUKE fundraising program.

He then resumed work as an actor. His next two major film appearances were both in 1981, in the comedy Longshot, and the slasher film Scream. Other roles include Edward Taylor in the NBC TV movie The Alamo: 13 Days to Glory (1986), Storm Logan on the CBS soap opera The Bold and the Beautiful (with Robert Mitchum's granddaughter Carrie Mitchum, whom he had met on the Big Jake set), (1987-88) which led to much work overseas, and his role as Officer Matt Doyle on The New Adam-12 (Universal Studios) 1989 through 1991. He appeared as an expert on John Wayne memorabilia on History Channel's Pawn Stars in the episode "Dog Day Afternoon" which aired January 14, 2014. He is the youngest son of actor John Wayne and his mother is John Wayne's third wife and widow, Peruvian actress Pilar Pallete. He grew up in Newport Beach, California, where he shared his father's love of the ocean and outdoors. His name was chosen in direct relation to John Wayne's character in The Searchers ("Ethan Edwards"). From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
