Ron Glass

Ron Glass was a popular face on-screen during the ’70s and early ’80s thanks to the sitcom Barney Miller. Although he appeared in many films and TV shows, most of his fans may remember him as Detective Ron Harris in this sitcom. He also appeared as Shepherd Derrial Book in Firefly and its sequel, Serenity. We can say that his degree in arts, drama, and literature definitely helped him hone his acting chops.

The glass was one of a kind, just like each of the artists on this list. He had his fair share of showing us his talents and gifts and the world certainly didn’t regret giving him a chance at that. His Lionel Richie-styled hair was so suitable for him in his younger days, and his grayish hair suited his bronze complexion more during his more mature days. He always looked like a half-breed to some people. He was big on giving back as well, he invested in philanthropy at some point in his life.
