Personal Quote:
I think my longevity has a lot to do with where I come from--a blue-collar town in Ohio--and how I was raised: to work hard and respect other folks. See more »Trivia:
During his series Spenser: For Hire (1985), Urich had a special agreement with the executives to fly out of state (from Boston, Massachusetts to the West Coast) when needed for his older daughter's medical treatments. See more »Nickname:
