Of course he is also known for other roles. A brief bio follows here:

"Richard Hatch has enjoyed international recognition for more than three decades. He has starred in such series as The Streets of San Francisco for which he won Germany’s Bravo Award (the equivalent of an Emmy Award), Battlestar Galactica, for which he was nominated for a Golden Globe award and the role of Philip Brent, which he originated on ABC’s All My Children. Richard is currently playing the role of Tom Zarek in the new re-imagined version of Battlestar playing on the Sci-fi channel and has just written a BG manga for Tokyopop focusing on his character."

I have seen Richard at a few other comic cons, most of which I was in packed rooms with others listening to him.  Recently I was able to meet him personally up close and get a few photos for my blog. Above are just two of them.

I found Richard to be a very busy guy, but he took the time to talk with me about some of his projects, including the book he was holding in the photo above.

His own 'Official Web Site' is at http://www.RichardHatch.com .

BTW, I would also give you the link to Richard's Facebook Fan Page, but it doesn't appear he has started one as of this posting... I'm Facebook Friends with him, but don't want to flood his own personal FB member account with Friends Requests at this time.

Of course he is also known for other roles. A brief bio follows here:

"Veteran actor, Herb Jefferson Jr is known to many as Lieutenant Boomer from 'Battlestar Galactica', the third of the holy trinity, which included Capt. Apollo and Lt. Starbuck. But, you've seen him in many more roles than as Galactica's erstwhile Cylon hunter.

Jefferson was a series co-star in "Rich Man, Poor Man" with Nick Nolte, as well as, it's sequel "Rich Man, Poor Man Book II", the Revolutionary War mini-series "The Bastard", "Yellow Rose" with Sam Elliott and Cybill Shephard, and "The Devlin Connection" with Rock Hudson and Jack Scalia. Jefferson has also starred in over 100 episodes of series TV, including "ER", "Sister Sister", "Hill Street Blues", "Police Story", "Airwolf", "T.J. Hooker", "Quincy", "The Streets of San Francisco", "White Shadow", "Night Rider", "McCloud" and "Mission Impossible". His most recent TV appearance was in the recurring role of Police Chief Priceon the NBC soap opera "Sunset Beach".

His many feature film credits include "Apollo 13", "Outbreak", "Detroit 9000", "Black Gun", "The Slams", "One Dozen" and Roger Corman's "Private Duty Nurses", which marked his feature film debut."

I was fortunate enough to meet him once at the 2009 San Diego Comic Con International, when the photo at the top right of this blog post was taken. It was in between my going from one program to the next, and I was walking by his booth 'under the sails'.  I noticed who he was as he was closing for the day, and stopped to talk with him and snapped a couple of photos for future blogging purposes.

BTW, Herb had a fan site when I last blogged about him, but it wasn't updated and now I don't see it at all. So I am not aware of any 'Official' web site for him.  There a couple of 'Fan' sites, but I am not listing those at this time.

If you are asking..."Who is Richard Herd?", that may be because he is such a good actor that you recognize him by sight, and not by name, because of the many roles he has played in his career!

I was fortunate enough to meet him once at a Quantum Leap Convention.  He was as nice in person as he was coming across as Moe Stein / Captain Galaxy on the Quantum Leap TV Show Episode "Future Boy"!

Others of YOU will remember him probably in diffrent roles, depending on YOUR age.  With the revival of 'V' on TV this New Season (2009-2010), several fans have gone back to see the original two series.  Richard had a role in the 1983 NBC miniseries V and then in the 1984 sequel V: The Final Battle, as John, the Visitors' Supreme Commander!

Others of you will remember his other major Sci-Fi genre roles include such recurring parts on the NBC series SeaQuest DSV as Admiral William Noyce, and then later on Star Trek: Voyager as Admiral Owen Paris, the father of Tom Paris.

But for me, as a big 'Leaper' during the days of Quantum Leap and QL Conventions, (see photo bottom right of this blog), I remember him best in two guest appearances on Quantum Leap, where he played the children's show host "Captain Galaxy" (a.k.a. Moe Stein in civilian life), who was a would-be time traveler, and then in the final episode, 'Mirror Image', as a miner named Ziggy Ziganovich. Darn, I miss that series... and yikes, It's been 20 Years as of 2009!

Anyways, if YOU plan to be in the Southern California area NEXT WEEKEND, and are a fan of his many TV AND Film roles, be sure to check out this 3-Day Comic Con in Anaheim, California!  If nothing else, if YOU are a Fan of any of the shows mentioned above, be there to see Richard Herd!

BIG NOTE:  Richard Herd will be there ONLY Friday and Saturday! Even though the Wizard World Con will be running through Sunday. Please Make a Note of That so YOU aren't disappointed if you want to see Richard!  

Below is just a very brief bio on Richard Herd, who BTW now has a Facebook Fan Page.  You too can become a fan by clicking here: Richard Herd Facebook Fan Page. There is also an 'Offical Richard Herd Web Site, click here. The excerpt of the bio is as follows:

"He is known to millions of television viewers for his portrayal of John the Supreme Commander on the mini-series "V," and his recurring role as Admiral William Noyce on Seaquest. In recent years Herd had guest star roles in the PBS Masterpiece Theater's "Song of the Lark" with Academy Award Winner Maximilian Schell; NBC's "Shattered Mind" with Heather Locklear, and "Ike - The War Years" with Robert Duval among others. Additional television credits include Admiral Owen Paris on Star Trek Voyager, and three seasons as Captain Dennis Sheridan in T.J. Hooker among numerous guest star roles."
