Born Lyon Chiam Green on Feb 12, 1915 in Ottawa, Ontario to Russian Jewish immigrants. The first of his American television roles was as family patriarch Ben Cartwright on the long-running western series Bonanza (1959–1973), making Greene a household name. After the cancellation of Bonanza, he was host for the CBS nature documentary series Last of the Wild from 1974 to 1975. In the 1977 miniseries Roots, he played the first master of Kunta Kinte, John Reynolds. Greene's next best-known role was Commander Adama, another patriarchal figure, in the science fiction feature film and television series Battlestar Galactica (1978–1979) and Galactica 1980 (1980). He was also the host and narrator of the nature series, Lorne Greene's New Wilderness. For nearly a decade, Lorne co-hosted the Macy's Thanksgiving Day Parade on NBC. Sadly, he died of pneumonia on September 11, 1987 in Santa Monica, California at the age of 72. Only weeks before his death, he had been signed to appear in a revival of Bonanza. The song on this video was performed by Lorne, entitled The Place Where I Worship. It's very fitting for this day and I hope, no matter what your religious beliefs, it will give you a feeling of peace.
