Dennis Weaver, who died of cancer in 2006, was a talented actor who left his indelible mark in three hit TV shows: Gunsmoke (CBS, 1955-1964; 1974), Gentle Ben (NBC, 1967-1969), and McCloud (NBC, 1970-1977). Before and after those iconic programs, Weaver had some hits and misses and some self-doubts about leaving the security of the long-running Gunsmoke series after almost a decade. The actor delivered countless performances before, during, and after that show. Some included small screen appearances in a compelling episode of The Twilight Zone, and the groundbreaking TV-movie Duel (Steven Spielberg's first full-length film). This is his story.
