Career
Born in Tenafly, New Jersey, Hamer grew up on TV as Rusty Williams, Danny Thomas's freckle-faced son on Make Room for Daddy. The series ran for a total of 351 episodes, ending in 1964.
After the series ended, Hamer appeared occasionally in bit parts on television shows such as CBS's Green Acres, starring Eddie Albert and Eva Gabor, but roles became increasingly sporadic. Hamer attempted a brief return to show business in 1970 as a married medical student in the show Make Room for Grandaddy, a sequel of Make Room for Daddy, but the show was canceled after one season. Hamer eventually moved to Louisiana where he worked on an off-shore oil rig and later, as a short order cook.
