Did Roy Rogers smoke

Answer 1

No.

"Look, I hate smoking. It took my parents from me, my father with lung cancer, my mother with emphysema. They both liked Luckies. When my dad's cancer was diagnosed, they played it safe and switched to Winstons. When my mother was breathing oxygen through a tube, she'd take out the tube, turn off the oxygen, and light up. I avoid smokers. It isn't allowed in our house. When I see someone smoking, it feels like i'm watching them bleed themselves, one drip at a time."

- Roger Ebert

Answer 2

Supposedly up until the late 1950s but can't verify the fact.

If I may: in point of fact, Roy still smoked (Camels at that) when I first met him, and that was March of 1968. He stopped, as I recall, the next year. At least I never saw him smoke after that.

Answer 3

Stanley Kubrick was a heavy smoker throughout his life.
