Ralph Richeson

Ralph Richeson, a gifted thespian, unexpectedly achieved widespread acclaim at the tender age of 52, following an unassuming start as an extra on the highly acclaimed television series Deadwood in the year 2004. Initially, his presence on set was largely unnoticed, yet his remarkable portrayal of Richardson, the lovably obtuse cook, who diligently worked under the esteemed hotel proprietor E.B. Farnum, somehow managed to pique the interest of casting directors, ultimately paving the way for a succession of notable film appearances.
