RICHARD ATTENBORUGH

As an actor, Richard Attenborough will remain famous for his roles in The Sand Pebbles, Miracle on 34th Street, Jurassic Park, and The Great Escape. His career extended to film director and producer. He also portrayed different personas in the industry: the pint-sized actor, the babyface, the cowardly, the cocky, and later, the creepy. Every image was brought to life fantastically because he knew how to handle every role given to him.

He once held the post of the President of The Royal Academy of Dramatic Art too. Sad to say, Richard, battled with a heart ailment, which later resulted in a stroke in 2008. He underwent treatment for years and had to live with a pacemaker fixed in his heart. On August 24, 2014, a few days before his 91st birthday, the actor gave up the ghost. He had no other issues left in Hollywood, and he never needed a family attorney too.
