Well, this is very wonderful to hear that "Richard is alive and well. He spends some time on his farm in Iowa, which his parents willed to him."
Now, of course, it's very difficult to lose parents and other family members and pets, so Richard has my sympathy, as well.
But that is very wonderful to hear that he has been enjoying a very nice and happy, healthy and productive retirement far from Hollywood, which only stands to reason, so Richard deserves many accolades for his many fine performances on "Murder, She Wrote" and elsewhere, as any very nice, very sincere and very wonderful fan would certainly agree.
If Sheridan were here, he'd be appalled.

actually his birth date is wrong on several websites. he is 67 but will be turning 68 in 2007. and he has just finished writing a book entitled "imposter" that will be available on amazon.com starting july 16, 2007.

Richard is alive and well. He spends some time on his farm in Iowa, which his parents willed to him. He never married and has kept his life private.

No, you're just confused. Confused=GUESS WHAT?!

Geeze!!! Why does everyone assume unmarried, childl5b4ess adults;especially those in Hollyweird are "gay?"
Whatever Richard's life situation is, I'm sure he's happy and I wish him the Best!
Guess what? I'm NOT married, have NO childrenAND I'm NOT gay! LOL

Just about everyone in Hollywood has had rumors spread that they were gay. Though it doesn't matter to me either way, I highly doubt he is.

I can't speak to the gay rumors but<<
Oh. That explains things. One of my major complaints with West Side Story (though I am a fan because I like so many other parts) is the casting of Richard Beymer who I thought was extremely effeminate in the movie. I had to look down during his "dancing down the street scene" because he sort of "leaped" so effeminately.
I have always wondered if it was just a matter of "wrong actor-wrong movie." Maybe I need to see another movie of his

Don't trust these 'contact celebrities'websites. They take you money, and provide absolutely nothing in return. Caveat emptor.

I fell in love with him as Tony in West Side Story. What a handsome face he had.
He was special. I'm watching The Longest Day now and was surprised to see him in it.
It's an interesting psychological phenomenon.

I wish I had the chance to meet him!!!!

I just finished working on a short film with him. Very nice guy, though kind of eccentric, which is to be expected I suppose.

you sound very sure of yourself. Let me ask you a questiondo you know him personally??..yea, I thought so

No, the rumors you heard about George are truedeal with it.

I have heard he's gay too. I know he is involved with a group in Fairfield Iowa of Trancendental Meditators. Actually they have their own city within the city called Vedic City.
Richard's actually listed in the phone book and I'd love to contact him because I only live 30 miles away. I feel its too intrusive to call his home, so I wish I could find an e-mail addy for him. Maybe I'll just write a letter.

I had the pleasure of interviewing him some years ago - we spent about a half day together. He is a very nice, intelligent man. I believe he pretty much calls his farm in Iowa home now. I know he is always interested in directing and in independent film - of course, when he was doing independent film, it cost $10,000 - the price and the stakes have gone up considerably. He appears on TV from time to time. He gave me a script of his to read - it was very interesting and very different. When I spoke to him, he was on his way to Brazil or something, so I think he travels a lot. I can't speak to the gay rumors but I can tell you he has been involved with women if his script was any indication. By the way, I am a woman, but he wasn't involved with me - darn!
