Richard Boone
Died: January 10, 1981 Born: June 8, 1916
Actor. He is best remembered for his role of Paladin in the television series, "Have Gun, Will Travel" (1957 to 1963). After fighting in World War II, he used his GI Bill to study acting at the Actor's Studio in New York. He began on Broadway in the play "Medea," and in 1950, he signed a movie contract with Twentieth Century Fox. His first movie was "Halls of Montezuma," playing a marine. Tall, lean and craggy, he was an instant pick for war and western movies. His greatest success came with the casting as Paladin (no first name ever mentioned) in the television series, "Have Gun, Will Travel" (1957), in which he played a cultured gunman for hire. His last role was playing Commodore Matthew Perry, in "The Bushido Blade" (1981).
