‘The Six Million Dollar Man’ Star Dead At 91

Actor Richard Anderson played Oscar Goldman on the popular 1970s TV series.

Actor Richard Anderson, best known for his role as Oscar Goldman on the 1970s shows “The Six Million Dollar Man” and “The Bionic Woman,” died Thursday, according to his family. He was 91.

Family spokesman Jonathan Taylor told The Associated Press Anderson died of natural causes. He didn’t elaborate.

Anderson’s acting career, which spanned nearly seven decades, started when legendary actor Cary Grant took him under his wing. After that, Anderson became an MGM contract player, appearing in movies like the influential sci fi film “Forbidden Planet.”

Anderson said his career really took after he worked with Stanley Kubrick on the 1957 anti-war classic “Paths Of Glory.”

“That film changed my whole career,” Anderson said, according to Hollywood Reporter.
