Wife Georgiana's sister was actress Loretta Young. Brother of actor Carlos Montalbán. Half-brother-in-law of Polly Ann Young, Sally Blane and Loretta Young, half-uncle of Judy Lewis and Christopher Lewis. Was nominated for Broadway's 1958 Tony Award as Best Actor (Musical) for "Jamaica." Appeared in episodes of three different series with Madlyn Rhue: "Bonanza" (1959), "Star Trek" (1966) and "Fantasy Island" (1978). They played husband and wife in the first two of these. In 1999, he purchased an old Hollywood theater designed by the well-known architect John C. Austin which was built in 1927: "...conceiving a plan to rebuild this theater to benefit the diverse community and to build a state-of-the-art school to compliment this live theater.". Best remembered by the public for his starring role as "Mr. Roarke" on "Fantasy Island" (1978). His friendly "Latin Lover" rivalry with fellow MGM film star Fernando Lamas prodded a memorable "Saturday Night Live" (1975) sketch in later years with Bill Murray titled "Quien es mas macho, Fernando Lamas o Ricardo Montalban?". Montalban's dignified demeanor and rich accent added flair to the small screen on a number of television shows. It also established him as a popular pitchman for Maxwell House Coffee and Chrysler.
