Richard McNamara

Born in USA. He remained in Italy with the Allies' occupation troops. In 1950 he played a bit role in Fred Zinnemann's movie TERESA (1951) shot on location in Italy. Since then, he played as an actor in some movies, especially Italian ones (remarkable his agreeable interpretation of the "Ciccio" character in Luigi Comencini's MARITI IN CITTA'). But he worked above all as a dubber - he was specialized in dubbing "American" characters (US energic ambassadors, US burly tourists, and so on...) with an "English accent" in Italian-language movies - and as an English-language dubber and Dubbing-Director of English-versions of some Italian movies.
