John Gavin –
Actor, US Embassador, double-0 6.5
April 8, 1931 – February 9, 2018.
Aged 86 years.
Most recognized for: Mr. Gavin carried supporting roles in several box office hits, including “Psycho,” “Imitation of Life,” and “Spartacus.” He was also slated to play James Bond twice, but was benched by producers at the last minute both times. In 1981, he was appointed Ambassador to Mexico by Reagan, which John parlayed into a new career in global capital management… which was far more lucrative than any lame acting gig.
