Father-in-law of Wendy Foxworth.

15His character on Babylon 5 (1993), General Hague, was killed off off-screen due to Foxworth's agent double-booking him for appearances on that show and Star Trek: Deep Space Nine (1993) in the same week. DS9 paid more, so that's the one he took.

16Unhappily left his role on Falcon Crest (1981) at the end of the sixth season. He had wanted to comeback from a year's sabbatical, but the producers could not work out a deal and Foxworth never returned as earlier planned.

17Best known by the public for his role as Chase Gioberti on Falcon Crest (1981).

18Replaced Clu Gulager for the role of Chase Gioberti on Falcon Crest (1981).

19In his younger years bore a striking resemblance to Robert Reed.
