Not bad for a man who had a acting career that lasted almost 60 years, from several not credited appearances in the TV show "The Phil Silvers Show" in 1956 to the theatrical film "The Gambler" in 2014."

And for another side of George Kennedy, then check out George Kennedy author and writer. Not only did he write up his memoirs in 2011 "Trust Me : a Memoir," but he wrote a couple of mysteries back in the early '80's. "Murder on High" and "Murder on Location." The last includes cameo appearances by Glenn Ford, Mariette Hartley, Dean Martin, and Vincent Price.
