Russell Thaw

Russell William Thaw (October 25, 1910 – May 6, 1984) was an American airplane pilot. While working as the chief pilot for the Guggenheim family, he was sponsored for air races and excursions. He served during World War II in the United States Army Air Force, and later became a test pilot for the Douglas Aircraft Company in California. In 1948 he was the first person to fly the Douglas XF3D-1.

Thaw was also known as the only child of American model and actress Evelyn Nesbit and, according to her, her husband Harry Kendall Thaw. Their lives had received sensational attention after his biological father fatally shot architect Stanford White in 1906 in front of a large crowd. Harry Thaw spent the next several years in mental institutions, before eventually being released. The Thaw family did not accept Nesbit's claims about Russell's paternity. He grew up in California, where his mother remarried after divorcing his father, and she had a prominent and lucrative acting career, with his mother being widely regarded as a contemporary standard for beauty in the western world. Thaw also worked as a child actor, appearing with his mother in six films of the silent film era, all of which are now lost.
