A Lester Del Rey story featured an astronaut with a face that would have 
made his fortune in Hollywood, but such a short stature that he was a 
natural for the space program - and not happy about it.

Memory, such as it is, tells me  that he was marooned on Mars, but the 
story, oddly enough, doesn't seem to be "Marooned on Mars".
