[PAR] [TLE] James Mitchell (actor) [SEP] James Mitchell (February 29, 1920 – January 22, 2010) was an American actor and dancer.  Although he is best known to television audiences as Palmer Cortlandt on the soap opera "All My Children" (1979–2010), theatre and dance historians remember him as one of Agnes de Mille's leading dancers.  Mitchell's skill at combining dance and acting was considered something of a novelty; in 1959, the critic Olga Maynard singled him out as "an important example of the new dancer-actor-singer in American ballet", pointing to his interpretive abilities and "masculine" technique. [PAR] [TLE] The Toast of New Orleans [SEP] The Toast of New Orleans is a 1950 MGM musical film directed by Norman Taurog and choreographed by Eugene Loring.  It starred Mario Lanza, Kathryn Grayson, David Niven, J. Carrol Naish, James Mitchell and a teenaged Rita Moreno.
