R.C. Bates

Richard Carlos Bates, a remarkable individual, entered this world on January 8, 1946, in the picturesque town of Houghton Lake, Michigan. His academic journey began at Arizona State University, where he was accompanied by his then-girlfriend, sharing a unique and memorable college experience. As an ardent animal lover, Richard majored in environmental science, driven by his passion for the natural world. Moreover, he had a secret talent for acting, which he nurtured by taking numerous drama courses. Over the years, Richard has made a name for himself in the film industry, though he has primarily focused on smaller, more intimate theatre projects in the Detroit and Phoenix areas. Today, Richard resides in Garden City, Michigan, with his loving wife, Kendra, and their two loyal canine companions, Dori and Sam.
