Jeff Richards: Baseball Player and Actor


Episode 521


The provided text is an excerpt from a Wikipedia article detailing the life and career of Jeff Richards, an American baseball player and actor born in 1924. This biographical overview outlines his early life as Richard Mansfield Taylor and his initial career as a minor league baseball player until an injury forced him to change professions. The article then traces his acting career, beginning with uncredited roles before his breakthrough performance in Seven Brides for Seven Brothers, which earned him a Golden Globe for Most Promising Newcomer. However, his subsequent star efforts at MGM were unsuccessful, leading to his eventual release from the studio and later work in television, including the lead in Jefferson Drum, before retiring and dying in 1989. The document also includes details about his personal life, marriages, filmography, and television appearances.
