Dead or Alive (4 of 12)- Richard Dawson
Today's spotlight is on former "Family Feud" game show host Richard Dawson. We are asking folks if you think he is dead or alive (Of course, we know the answer!).
Dawson was born on Nov. 20, 1932, in Gosport, England.
He acted in "Hogan's Heroes" in 1965 and then became a panelist on "Match Game 73" in 1973.
Dawson started hosting "Family Feud" in 1976 where he became famous for kissing female contestants.
He then co-starred with Ahnuld in "The Running Man" (1987) where he played a mad tv game show host.
And, Dawson was portrayed by Michael E. Rodgers in the film "Auto Focus" about the life of his "Hogan's Heroes" co-star Bob Crane, who was a sex addict who died under mysterious circumstances in 1978.
Dawson hasn't been heard from much in recent years, but that doesn't mean he is dead (or does it?!).
