Richard Anderson, at an authoritative 6ft 3 (190.5 cm), commanded screens as the towering figure of Oscar Goldman in The Six Million Dollar Man and The Bionic Woman. His impressive height enhanced his role as the steadfast boss to bionic agents Steve Austin and Jaime Sommers, from 1974 to 1978 and in reunion TV movies like The Return of the Six Million Dollar Man and the Bionic Woman (1987). This stature perfectly suited his image as a powerful overseer in sci-fi television.
