RICHARD KEITH | 1950

You may know Richard Keith as a musician, but he first rose to prominence as a child actor. He is widely known for his role as Little Ricky on the TV series I Love Lucy and The Lucy-Desi Comedy Hour. At the age of 70, he is the only living regular cast member of the aforementioned show.

Keith first showed his incredible skills in playing drums at the tender age of three. At the time, he was already making $500 a week by touring with the Horace Heidt Orchestra. With his cuteness, his father took him to an acting audition, and from here, the rest was history. The actor’s career went successful, giving him the right investment money to pioneer the Ballet Magnificat! Brasil dance company and trainee program with his wife, Kathy Denton. In addition, despite his advancing age, Keith remains active in the industry.
