Ralph Carter – 1961

Everyone remembers Ralph Carter from the CBS sitcom “Good Times,” which aired between 1974 and 1979. Carter made a name for himself as an actor and singer. Even before “Good Times,” he was featured in the Broadway musical titled “Raisin” and was awarded as the Most Promising Performer.

Carter’s career started when he was only nine and lasted less than two decades. During that time, in addition to his acting, he recorded a music album titled “Young and in Love.” Two songs from that album, “When You’re Young and in Love” and “Extra, Extra (Read All About It),” became chart hits at number ten and 12, respectively.

 

Richard Dean Anderson – 1950

Richard Dean Anderson began his career in the ’70s when he became part of General Hospital. He later had his big break when he got cast as the lead of another series called MacGyver. Then he appeared in Through the Eyes of a Killer and Pandora’s Clock, to mention a few.

Now, at the age of 71, it looks like he prefers a quieter life even though he could’ve continued acting. He hasn’t done any acting work since 2013, when he appeared on an episode of Don’t Trust the B—- in Apartment 23. These days, he splits his time between his homes in LA, northern Minnesota, and Vancouver.

 

Max Baer Jr. – 1937

Though Max Baer Jr. went to Santa Clara University to study business, he found himself in show business, and he did pretty well. His acting career took off when he joined the cast of The Beverly Hillbillies, holding the most prominent role of his entire career.

He attempted to put up a casino when his acting career slowed down, but its development got suspended in 2012. Baer Jr. is the last member of the Beverly Hillbillies cast who is still alive today. He appeared in Jay Sebring…. Cutting to the Truth in 2020 and will appear in The Harlem Harlequin: Slapsie Maxie Rosenbloom which is currently filming.
