Richard Farnsworth (1920-2000) Actor
By the time he finally got name-above-the-title billing, he was 61 years old,
and had been in films for 34 of those years. A veteran Hollywood stunt man,
he earned widespread adulation for two outstanding lead performances, first in "The Grey
Fox" (1982) and then as the dedicated Alvin Straight in "The Straight Story" (1999).
