Biography

Here is the person biography:

Clarence Loy Colbert Jr. was born in Long Beach, California, the youngest of three siblings. He attended Long Beach Polytechnic High School, excelling academically and as an athlete in track and field. Colbert studied theatre arts at the University of California, Berkeley, before serving in the U.S. military on the island of Okinawa.

After his military service, Colbert worked as a disc jockey on a local radio station and later tried out for a stage production of The Caine Mutiny Court-Martial, which sparked his interest in acting. He honed his skills in Shakespearean roles with the Portland Repertory Theater in Oregon and was approached by comedian Mickey Shaughnessy to travel to Hollywood to meet his agent.

Colbert signed with Warner Brothers and made his screen debut in 1957, appearing in several TV series and films, including westerns and science fiction shows. He was particularly fond of horses and had a great fondness for westerns. After five years with Warner Brothers, Colbert was released from his contract and went on to appear in several other TV shows, including The Time Tunnel, Land of the Giants, and Mannix.

Colbert continued to work in television and film throughout his career, appearing in shows such as The Young and the Restless, Frasier, and Baywatch. He retired from acting in 1995 and now makes appearances at science fiction and western conventions across America.
