Rich Correll may forever be remembered by classic TV fans as Richard Rickover, the loyal pal of Theodore “Beaver” Cleaver during the last three seasons of Leave It to Beaver. But the now 77-year-old Correll has been anything but quiet in the years since he left his acting career behind. In fact, he’s been involved in a whole new generation of family TV.
Born May 14, 1948, Correllwas part of television’s golden era, appearing not only on Leave It to Beaver but also in episodes of The Adventures of Ozzie and Harriet, Lassie and National Velvet. That early exposure to Hollywood set the stage for a lifelong career in entertainment, though Correll didn’t stay in front of the camera for long. Instead, he found his true calling behind it as a director.
