Richard Benjamin

Richard Benjamin (born May 22 1938) is an American actor and film director. Then he returned to comedy with a supporting role as a harried theatrical agent in the Neil Simon hit The Sunshine Boys opposite Walter Matthau and George Burns and as Matthau's colleague at an ineptly run hospital in House Calls (1978). Benjamin's acting appearances have become less frequent: he has chosen more directing of film as he feels everyone has looked at his acting in other films along the way.
