Richard Carlson <span class="SFPTagline"> From SCIFIPEDIA </span>  Richard Carlson (April 29, 1912 Albert Lea, Minnesota - November 24, 1977) was an American actor. You suddenly find yourself in a 1950s Sci Fi flick, menaced by a monster. You wish you had one of those earnest, stalwart leading men of the times. You know the type: physically capable, but not a bodybuilder, intelligent, protective, but willing to admit when he's scared. You may be thinking of Richard Carlson, who starred in a few of the real classics of that time period. It Came From Outer Space and The Creature from the Black Lagoon are two of those movies that many science fiction fans have seen over and over again. Both had Jack Arnold directing Carlson as the hero. He would return to the genre occassionally throughout his career, notably as another hero: cowboy turned dinosaur-wrangler, Champ Connors, in Ray Harryhausen's The Valley of Gwangi (1969).
