My knowledge about him is pretty sketchy.

When I think of James Brolin, I think about his family. I think of him as the husband of Barbara Streisand and the father of Josh Brolin. Of course, James had quite a career on his own. I just can’t remember that much about it.

I do seem to vaguely remember he worked with Marcus Welby. I also remember him being on Law-and-Order Special Victims Unit and dating Benson. I also remember Stabler busting him the chops. In addition, he was in a West World movie and in a movie where he played an astronaut. I really need to do so more reading. So, after doing some reading, here are some things you didn’t know about James Brolin.

1: Brolin has won two Golden Globe Awards and an Emmy.

Not to mention a couple of trophy wives. Hols on, being told that’s not cool or funny. But I will talk more about his wives later.

2: James was born Craig Kenneth Bruderlin in in Westwood Village, Los Angles, California.

Craig Kenneth might have had a chance as a Hollywood name, but Bruderlin was pretty much DOA.

3: When was young he became friends with Ryan O’Neal.
