He was one of the greatest actors of all time; he fell out of the spotlight just before this new generation came along, that is why some of you don't know him. He was President of the NRA (National Rifle Association) for about five years I think. I personally remember him from his roles in "The Ten Commandments," "Ben-Hur" and "The Greatest Story Ever Told" which are great movies, even if you aren't Christian. The only other person I can think that even came close to his caliber was his co-star in "The Ten Commandments," Yul Brynner.
