Best remembered for starring in the action series S.W.A.T., the adventurous The Baron, and the long-running soap Dallas, his tall stature suited tough, leading-man roles.
His film highlights include Mommie Dearest, The Wild Country, It Happened to Jane, The Long Gray Line, Heller in Pink Tights, and Flaming Star. A 1971 article highlighted him as 6ft 3 and over 200lbs, underscoring his physically dominant image.
