Dullea Keir

American actor, typecast as a brooding neurotic with the success of his first two films, "The Hoodlum Priest," 1961 and "David and Lisa," 1962. He also starred in "2001: A Space Odyssey, 1968. The only child of two Greenwich Village bookstore owners, Dullea trained at San Francisco State College. Self assured in his early days, the attractive and intelligent actor has also done Broadway. He appeared with Blythe Danner in "Butterflies Are Free," 1970 but the play closed in London after two months. He faded from show business in the early 70s, working only enough to pay the bills. From the mid-80s his work has been on Broadway, off-Broadway and regional theater. He feels that his acting abilities are strongest on stage. His first marriage was to actress Margo Bennett in 1960. In 1971 when he first saw actress-director Susie Fuller he "knew instantly" that she was the woman he wanted to marry, which he did within the year. He has two step-daughters, Suki and Sasha, and family life revolves around their Theatre Arts Workshops. A few years after Susies death, Dullea married Mia Dillon in 1999. They have done a play together and share a home in Connecticut and an apartment in N.Y. Link to Wikipedia biography Read less
