Richard Anderson : Biography, Pictures, Photos, Trivia, Address, Filmography (The Six Million Dollar Man, The Bionic Woman, Cover Up)

Richard Anderson appeared in high school plays, served a hitch in the Army and, upon his discharge, began doing summer stock, radio work, a movie bit part (a wounded soldier in "Twelve O'Clock High") and all the other minor jobs required of your basic struggling actor. He did comedy scenes on a "screen test"-like TV series called "Lights, Camera, Action" and impressed the right people at MGM, who offered him a contract. After leaving MGM, he continued to dabble in movies while at the same time becoming a huge presence on TV. He was a regular (Police Lt. Drum) during the last season of TV's "Perry Mason"; in the series' last episode, he interrogates witnesses to a murder in a TV studio--the witnesses being played by the "Perry Mason" crew. In the high-rated last episode of "The Fugitive," he plays Richard Kimble's (David Janssen) brother-in-law, and is briefly suspected of being the real killer of Kimble's wife. A regular on TV's "The Six Million Dollar Man," Anderson has more recently produced the TV-movie reprises of that series.
