About the Book



A biography of British and Hammer film star Ralph Bates



Book Synopsis



Written with the blessing of Bates' wife Virginia and his two

children, Ralph Bates: A Biography delves deep into the actor's

life from childhood and his beginning interest in theater at

school, to his tenure at Hammer Film Productions as one of

its rising stars, to his triumphs in television with lead roles in

Poldark and Dear John. This biography features 165 photos,

including many never-before-seen family photos. Besides his

well-known turns as the dark and brooding villain, readers

will also learn about his outside love of cricket and his desire

to perform comedy, which came to fruition during his multiple

tours with the production of Run for Your Wife! In addition to

quotes from Bates from various interviews, over 70 original

author-acquired contributions from family, friends and

coworkers were gathered to give the most complete look at the

life of a much missed actor, husband, father and friend to many.

The author is donating all personal proceeds from sales of this

book to the Ralph Bates Pancreatic Cancer Research Fund,

which was created to honor Bates, who passed away from the

disease in 1991.
