How tall is Brian Dennehy?
Imposing, barrel-shaped and now silver-haired Brian Dennehy is a prolific US actor who has been well known for the better part of 25 years on both screen and stage. He was born in Bridgeport, CT, in July 1938 and attended on a football scholarship at Columbia University in New York City. Before going on to Yale to study dramatic arts, he majored in history. He starred for the first time in small film roles such as Looking for Mr. Goodbar (1977), Semi-Tough (1977) and Foul Play (1978) and became popular with casting directors, contributing to frequent jobs. In the box office hit First Blood (1982), however, he was never seen by movie goers as the bigoted sheriff wanted to push Vietnam veteran "John Rambo" (played by Sylvester Stallone) out of his town.
