George Hamilton

Person • Aug 12, 1939

George Stevens Hamilton (born August 12, 1939) is an American actor. For his debut performance in Crime and Punishment U.S.A. (1959), Hamilton won a Golden Globe Award and was nominated for a BAFTA Award. He has received one additional BAFTA nomination and two Golden Globe nominations. Hamilton began his film career in 1958, and although he has a substantial body of work in film and television, he is perhaps most famous for his debonair style, perpetual suntan, and commercials for Ritz Crackers. Bo Derek wrote in her autobiography that "there was an ongoing contest between (her late husband) John Derek and George Hamilton as to who had the most tan!" According to Filmink "he managed to survive an incredible amount of flops to not only forge an entirely decent career of sixty plus years, but also evolved into a very good actor." (Via Wikipedia)
