Douglas Barr played Howie Munson, the loyal sidekick and fellow stuntman to Lee Majors' Colt Seavers in the ABC action-adventure series The Fall Guy (1981-1986). His portrayal of the enthusiastic, somewhat naive partner provided comic relief and a foil for Majors' more experienced character, and the two actors developed a natural on-screen chemistry that helped make the show a popular hit throughout its five-season run.
...Barr had worked in television before The Fall Guy, appearing in various productions. After the series ended, he moved primarily into directing, working behind the camera on numerous television productions. He directed episodes of several popular series and built a successful career as a television director. His work on The Fall Guy remains his most prominent acting role.
