Richard's Story

Life Greetings to my old friends and classmates. Please note I was a friend of St. Augustine's H.S., not a student. I attended St. Kierans school in Lawrenceville until 1954. I went on to Marianist Prep school in New York. As a Marianist seminarian, my deploma was from North Catholic H.S.(Pittsburgh). Also attended Carnegie Mellon University (Oakland) and Los Angeles City College. Worked in the Editorial Dept. of the Pittsburgh Press.(58-62) I moved on to work and make my home in Los Angeles/Hollywood as an Actor and Stand-in for 36 years. As a member of the Screen Actors Guild Hollywood, I was associated with such shows as: Hill St Blues, L.A. Law, Picket Fences and recently completed work on 'the practice'. I was a standin for such actors as: Kevin Costner, Bob Newhart, Gene Hackman and many others. Worked in two Oscar winning movies and five Emmy winning series. Feature films include: MASH, The Sting, No Way Out, Young Frankenstein, Blues Brothers, Star Trek, Rocky IV, etc. I have over 300 TV series and Motion Pictures credits as an actor/standin/Background Artist. Also appeared on such shows as: Quincy, Dukes of Hazzard, Love Boat, Chicago Hope, Laverne and Shirley, Night Court, Lou Grant, etc. All of my wor...Expand for more
k was done at the major Hollywood studios: Warner Bros, Universal, MGM, Paramount, 20th Century Fox and Disney. I presently have apartment access in Hollywood, Honolulu and New York City for acting assignments. We completed our new home a few years ago at Highlands Ranch, Colorado. We are about 25 miles south of downtown Denver and just North of Colorado Springs. Married and the father of: Richard, Lisa and Chris. Wife Alana is from the Mt. Washington area of Pittsburgh. She is presently teaching at Wildcat Mountain School, Highlands Ranch, Colorado. I am presently semi-retired from the entertainment industry. My most recent work was a commercial for NIKE. Our Catholic faith has always been an important part of our lives and we thank God and St. Jude everyday for Their help thoughout this journey. Go Steelers Go Pens Go Pirates The one person from my past who I'd most like to see again is Jean Lenkiewicz, because I never forgot her over all these years since leaving Pittsburgh for Hollywood back in the 60's. I have such happy memories of school days at St. Kieran and the Saturday's at the Lexington Roller Rink. For me, Jean was one of life's special friends.
