Ian Hendry(1931-1984)
- Actor
Born 13 January 1931 in Ipswich, England, Ian Hendry's career began
rather inauspiciously, playing the fall guy for a circus clown. After
attending London's Central School of Speech and Drama, things started
progressing nicely when he starred as "Dr. Geoffrey Brent" in
Police Surgeon (1960). This
led directly to
The Avengers (1961) but, after
only one season, he left to pursue film. This proved a fruitful move as
he found plenty of work (perhaps not surprisingly, often as doctors and
police officers), although he made occasional returns to the small
screen, even guest-starring in an episode of
My God, It's the New Avengers (1976). His
career was cut short on 24 December 1984, as he died from an internal
hemorrhage at age 53.
