MAX BAER JR. – 83

Max Baer Jr. is one of the most talented American artists in the industry. He excels in acting, directing, producing, and comedy. Talk about a quadruple threat! Max’s career has come a long way since his first acting gig in 1949 in Goldilocks and the Three Bears at the Blackpool Pavilion. He also appeared with some minor credits in shows like Maverick, Surfside 6, Hawaiian Eye, The Roaring 20s, and 77 Sunset Strip.

Two years later, Baer’s career started to gain momentum after he joined the cast of The Beverly Hillbillies as Jethro Bodine. The show lasted nine years, which means nine consistent years of paychecks for his bank account. His last film appearance was in the TV show Murder, She Wrote in 1991. In this episode, he portrayed State Trooper Boone Willoughby. After the show went off the air, he focused more on off-screen roles, which he’s good at, such as writing, producing, and directing shows. Who never thought that Max Baer is now 83 years old and still manages to do what he loves.
