Richard Greene (25 August 1918 - 1 June 1985) was a noted British movie and television actor. He was a descendent of the cinema pioneer William Friese-Greene and was of Irish Catholic extraction, being born in Plymouth, England.
A matinee idol who appeared in more than 40 films, he was perhaps best known for the long-running British TV series The Adventures of Robin Hood, which ran from 1955 to 1960.
He was twice married:
1) The Anglo-Spanish actress Patricia Medina (1950-1960), who became Joseph Cotten's second and final wife. 2) Greene died in London, aged 66, of complications from a brain tumour.
