With his roles as a bare-chested warrior and a laser-gun slinging lizard slayer, Marc Singer was a film and television icon of 1980s sci-fi fantasy. Also a popular mainstay at conventions and fan gatherings, the hard-working, soft-spoken actor remained in the limelight as a kind of pop cultural touchstone, long after his most famous work was behind him.While many actors are drawn to the stage, Singer barely had a choice. Born Jan. 29, 1948 and raised in Vancouver, British Columbia, Singer grew up in a family of performers. His father was a symphony conductor; his mother was a concert pianist.
