Born: Mar 1, 1945
|
Dirk Benedict was born in Montana on March 1st, 1945. He
was raised in the country, far away from anything connected with
movies or acting. He gathered his first experiences in acting (on
a dare) in a college production of "Showboat" where he got the
main part. His father, a lawyer, died when Dirk was 18, which was
hard for him to take. While working at "Georgia, Georgia" in
Sweden, he made the first contact with a macrobiotic diet and
changed his eating habits drastically. He was 26 at that time. A
few years later, doctors found that he had cancer of the
prostate. He refused to accept the usual treatment and moved away
to a secluded cottage. Dirk managed to cure himself from cancer
by following the rules of his macrobiotic diet. When he got his
part as "Starbuck" in Battlestar Galactica in 1978, the doctors
stated that he was in good health. Dirk's main successes were
"Battlestar Galactica" and the TV-Series "The A-Team" in which he
played "Templeton - The Face - Peck". He is married to actress
Toni Hudson and has two sons (George and Roland).
