DENNIS HOLMES | 71

The former child actor Dennis Holmes was active in the show business for 14 years, from 1950 to 1964. He was popular for portraying Mike Williams in the western television series entitled Laramie. It was also followed by other television appearances in the shows, including Father Knows Best, Leave It to Beaver, and The Restless Gun. He also guest-starred in many other sitcoms in the 1960s. During his acting days, the famous Western actor Robert Fuller took Holmes under his guidance.

When Holmes was just 10 years old, Fuller taught him a lot of stuff. In the 1960s, Holmes was unfamiliar with almost anything related to the industry luckily Fuller was there to mentor him. Their friendship has lasted for over 55 years already. After retiring from acting, Holmes focused on his education. However, not much is known about his present occupation, but we do hope he’s been doing well and practices good money management skills to secure his future.
