Very odd - - he died on February 10th but we're only hearing about it now. Thanks to Richard for the call on the CDW Hotline.
Is it rude to say that he's more of a heartthrob than an actor? I remember him fondly from *The Winds of War* and especially from "Danger Island," a recurring segment on *The Banana Splits.*
Ah the glories of Youtube: here's a montage of pin-up shots of him from the 70s.
