Acteur et chanteur Country Canadien né le 12
Février 1915 à
Ottawa (Ontario). Lorne Greene est décédé le 11 Septembre 1987 à Santa Monica
(Californie).
Actor Lorne
Greene enjoyed a brief recording career in the mid-'60s, when he was at the
height of his popularity thanks to his role as Ben Cartwright on the
long-running Western series Bonanza. Greene was born in 1915 in Ottawa,
Ontario, and went to college to study chemical engineering. He wound up
discovering theater instead, and opted for a career in the performing arts. He
worked in radio for a time, working his way up to become Canada's best-known
newscaster. He left for New York in 1950, and soon appeared in Broadway
productions and several films. He won the role of Ben Cartwright in 1959,
playing the Ponderosa Ranch's patriarch until Bonanza finally went off
the air in 1973. In the meantime, NBC, hoping to capitalize on the series'
popularity, brought several cast members into the recording studio. Greene
released his first album in 1963, and the following year he scored a surprise
number one smash with "Ringo," a Western story song he narrated rather than
sang. Greene charted a couple more times with 1965's "The Man" and 1966's
"Waco," and released a total of five albums on RCA Victor from 1963-1966.
Afterwards, he returned to acting full-time, most notably appearing in the TV
miniseries Roots and starring in the sci-fi series Battlestar
Galactica, as well as narrating numerous documentaries. Just before he was
scheduled to reprise his Bonanza role for a TV-movie reunion, Greene died
of complications from surgery on September 11, 1987.
