He was an actor (screen name) on A 60s western TV show. I think Bonanza? The big sensitive lovable, but hard to knock around brother of Adam (Pernell Roberts) and Little Joe (Michael Landon) in the hit TV show Bonanza. He ate three times as much as everyone, and was the easiest to pull a prank on, but they always respected him because of his size and his respect for others.
