A former Welsh rugby international who played once for his country,
against France in 1956. Took his rugged good looks to Hollywood seeking
fame and fortune, auditioned for a Tarzan movie but was pipped to the
post by Gordon Scott. Was plucked from the extras in The Wild Women of
Wongo to play the King of Wongo. His short lived career inspired his
nephew
Julian Richards to go into movies as a director.
