Max Baer Jr. – Businessman At 81
Actor, writer, and filmmaker Max Baer Jr. has performed in many television series and films before and after The Beverly Hillbillies (1962-1971), but the role of Jethro Bodine is still his most memorable one. While the character got immensely popular, it affected his acting career because of typecasting.
Still, he became fairly successful as a screenwriter and director, and his movies such as Macon County Line made a record at the box-office. It’s been years now since Baer has taken retirement from either side of the camera, but the 81-year-old is still active as a businessman.
