The best-selling memoir Confessions of a Kamikaze Cowboy tells
the fascinating story of actor Dirk Benedict’s journey from the big sky
country of Montana to the hustle and hype of Hollywood. It also
describes his odyssey of self-discovery and growth as he changes from
struggling actor to celebrity, from meat eater to vegetarian, from
cancer victim to cancer victor. Brilliantly written―insightful, witty,
and always challenging―Confessions of a Kamikaze Cowboy may change the way you perceive actors, and even make you reconsider the truths in your own life.
Blessed with a classically handsome profile and a knack for playing
charming rogues, actor Dirk Benedict entered the pantheon of historic
television personalities as not one, but two iconic characters. After
making an entry into film with B-movie fare like the reptilian horror
tale "Sssssss" (1973), Benedict landed one of his two most enduring
roles when he was cast as the devil-may-care fighter pilot Starbuck on
"Battlestar Galactica" (ABC, 1978-79). Although the show met with an
early demise, the actor quickly went on to even greater stardom as
conman Templeton "Faceman" Peck on the action-adventure "The A-Team"
(NBC, 1983-87). During and after "The A-Team," Benedict took on
occasional film work, in such roles as a down-on-his-luck manager in the
pro-wrestling comedy "Body Slam" (1986) and as a downed pilot whose
only hope of survival lies in his two young children locating him in
time in the rugged family adventure "Alaska" (1996). Benedict remained
busy on American and international television, most notably on a
controversial season of the U.K.'s "Celebrity Big Brother" (BBC
One/Channel 4, 2001- ). Although he was a vocal critic of the series
reboot of "Battlestar Galactica" (Sci Fi Channel, 2004-09), Benedict
showed his approval of the feature film version of "The A-Team" (2010)
by making an appearance alongside actor Bradley Cooper, taking over the
role of Faceman. With a pair of beloved, classic television series to
his credit, Benedict long ago had earned the adoration of generations of
fans.
