Actor Kevin McCarthy's most well-known role is probably that of Dr. Miles Bennell in the original 1956 version of "Invasion of the Body Snatchers." Fans of the 1989 film "UHF" starring Weird Al Yankovic will remember McCarthy as R.J. Fletcher, head of the rival netwark station. He has been seen in over 200 films and television programs in his 60+ year career,and is STILL acting at nearly 96 years old.
I mailed this to him in 1997, and received it back 3 1/2 years later. It was well worth the wait, as besides signing the drawing he also sent me about 8 signed photos from various films he was in.
