Roger Moore, of James Bond and The Saint, Dead at 89
Roger Moore, the dashing British actor best known for his tenure in the James Bond film series, has died.
Taking on the 007 mantle from George Lazenby, who did one movie after Sean Connery, Moore starred in Live and Let Die, The Spy Who Loved Me, Moonraker, For Your Eyes Only, Octopussy and A View to a Kill.
Moore was made a Knight Commander of the British Empire in recognition of his charity work with UNICEF in 2003, though he lived in Switzerland after 1978 to avoid paying taxes in Great Britain.
Moore was married four times -- first to his RADA classmate Doorn Van Steyn, then to singer Dorothy Squires from 1954 to 1961, then to Italian actress Luisa Mattioli from 1969 to 1993 (though they were together since 1961) and finally to Danish-Swedish socialite Kristina "Kiki" Tholstrup.
