According to his IMDb, Richard had a “deep gravelly voice,” “muscular stature” and “towering height.”

He stood at 8 feet and 6 inches tall.

Following his tenure on “Night Court,” Richard lent his “villainous” voice to various video games and comic book projects, including “Spider-Man: The Animated Series” and “Batman: The Animated Series.”

He moved to Hollywood in 1968, but as he quipped in a 2003 interview with People, “it took [him] 10 years to find [his] way to the bathroom.”

Richard was also an avid fly-fisherman.
