My sister and I are big fans of actor Dale Robertson. Please share some background.
—The Maute Sisters, Tulsa, Oklahoma
The native of Harrah, Oklahoma, was best known as troubleshooter Jim Hardie in the TV series “Tales of Wells Fargo” (1957-1962), but he also starred in TV’s “The Iron Horse,” “Dynasty” and “J.J. Starbuck,” and hosted “Death Valley Days.” A skilled horseman from his youth, the World War II veteran made more than 30 movies, most of them Westerns, and owned a horse ranch in Yukon, Oklahoma, for many years. He died in February 2013 from lung cancer and pneumonia at age 89.
