One of those names I feel like I've been familiar with my entire life, but I couldn't for the life of me conjure up a picture of him or tell you if/where I've ever seen him. Looking over his credits, i'm thinking I must have heard his name when he appeared on the TV show The Virginian (though I don't know I ever watched the show). I certainly remember the character of Abilene in The Last Picture Show, but never registered it was him playing the part.
But there he is, with over 100 credits (largely TV), proving that there are actors having perfectly solid careers with whom some of us never really come in contact.
