Mark Sutherland

Born in Orange, California, Mark Sutherland had a little experience as a performer, having appeared in a few TV series episodes, before auditioning for and being picked as a Mousketeer on The Mickey Mouse Club (1955). He stayed with the show for the first season, but before the show entered its second season he, like most of the original cast, was let go. He apparently did not continue a show-business career, and little is known of him after he left the show. When Walt Disney Studios was planning its 25th Anniversary Mousketeer Reunion Special in 1980 they contacted him, but he declined to participate.
