Full Biography

|

Kevin Michael Brophy (November 1, 1953 – May 11, 2024) was an American film and television actor. He is best known for his portrayal of the title character in Lucan (1977–1978).

Life and career

Brophy was born in Salt Lake City, Utah. He appeared with his wife, Amy, in the 1994 film The Magic of the Golden Bear: Goldy III.

In addition to acting, Brophy found employment as a valet who parked cars at the Hotel Bel-Air between 1983 and 2009.

Illinois-based Ray Fulk, a man who died in July 2012 at the age of 71, bequeathed half of his estate to the actor in his will, the other half going to his former Hell Night castmate and The Young and the Restless star Peter Barton, despite never meeting them. Fulk, who had no family of his own, was a fan of both actors.

On June 16, 2024, it was revealed that Brophy died on May 11, 2024, at his home in Rancho Santa Fe, California, following a 10-year battle with Stage 4 cancer. He was 70.
