Richard Farnsworth

I was a stunt man for 35 years.

I worked for John Ford, Howard Hawks, Henry Hathaway, Raoul Walsh - I worked for some real good directors.

I don't know if you saw the parting of the Red Sea with the chariots on the horses, I did stuff like that.

I went to study at Oxford University in the 1980s on an imperial scholarship instituted by Cecil Rhodes.

Of course, DeMille never did anything on a small scale.

I studied international relations and economics at the University of Virginia. I paid my way by working as a bartender in the summer and at three part-time jobs during the year.
