Richard Beymer


The veteran actor George Richard Beymer, Jr. began his Hollywood career for the children’s series Sandy Dreams. Throughout his time on the show, Richard would spend time rehearsing his parts and recording them on the weekends. A couple of years later, he slowly made his way towards the mainstream film industry with his debut film Stazione Termini. The actor took the opportunity to star in other notable titles like West Side Story, The Diary of Anne Frank, and The Presence.

With that said, fans of Richard often remember him most for his role as Ben Horne in Twin Peaks. While he was working on the show, the actor snatched a few behind-the-scenes photos of the cast and crew, which featured in Twin Peaks’ Definitive Gold Box Edition. As of 2010, reports suggest that he’s residing in his real estate investment in Iowa, producing films and other works of art such as paintings and sculptures.
