Personal Quote:
[on Charles Bronson] I don't think reviews get to Charlie much, though, unless they're especially personal. In the twenty-five years or so I've known him, he's not changed much. He's his own man. Stays pretty much to himself. If he cares what other people think of him, he doesn't show it. See more »Trivia:
Passed away just four months after his The Real McCoys (1957) co-star Tony Martinez. See more »Trademark:
Rich, smoke-burnished voiceStar Sign:
