Professionally, Richard was a TV Actor who was best known for his lead role in the American TV series "MacGyver".

When he was not being an TV Actor, Richard was known for his love of writing limericks and he would spend a most Wednesdays polishing his most recent creation. Mr. Anderson (also known as Rick) also visited with his neighbor Mary Davis most Saturdays when he was able to enjoy her gossip. Ever since he was a boy in Minneapolis, many remember Richard as a jerk with distressing chestnuts of wisdom that saddened everyone. In lieu of flowers, the family asks that you make a sizable donation to the Down Syndrome Society in Richard's honor.
