Guy Williams - Zorro, Prof. Robinson, and cousin Will Cartwright.

In today's videos, lets look back at an under-rated actor who is fondly remembered - Guy Williams was born on January 14, 1924, as Armand Joseph Catalano by his family) of Italian parentage, at the Fort George area in New York City.

On May 7th, 1989 the local police found his body in his apartment in La Recoleta, Argentina. finding his dead body. He had suffered a brain aneurysm a week before that day. He was still wearing the characteristic Zorro's sideburns and mustache when they found him.

While best known for his roles in "Zorro" (1957-1959) and "Lost in Space" (1965-1968), Williams career might have taken a completely different path if Pernell Roberts had left "Bonanza" in 1964. Williams returned to Hollywood to resume his career, and was added to the cast of the NBC's hit TV series "Bonanza" (1959-1973) as Ben's nephew, Will Cartwright. Pernell Roberts (Adam Cartwright), planned to leave the show at the end of the 1964 season, overlapping with Williams for five episodes, with Williams replacing Roberts' in the four-Cartwright format. Instead, Roberts decided late in the season to stay for one more year before departing. The episode in which the woman "Adam" was originally going to marry was rewritten so that she wound up unexpectedly choosing to leave with "Will Cartwright" instead, with Adam's selfless blessing. The popular series ran for nine more years.

The following are some of what we remember best about Guy Williams, his charm, his athleticism, his love of life.
