Philip Carey dies at 83; costarred in ‘Laredo’ and had long-running role on ‘One Life to Live’
Philip Carey, the ruggedly handsome veteran actor who costarred in the 1960s TV western “Laredo” and more recently played the long-running role of a bigger-than-life Texas tycoon on the ABC soap opera “One Life to Live,” has died. He was 83.
Carey, who also was known in Southern California in the 1960s for his tongue-in-cheek series of commercials for Granny Goose potato chips, died Friday at his home in New York City after a battle with lung cancer, said Lauri Hogan, publicity director for “One Life to Live.”
The tall, deep-voiced actor began playing Asa Buchanan, the strong-willed Buchanan family patriarch who could be ruthless in business and would do whatever he had to do to protect his family, in 1980.
Carey was diagnosed with lung cancer in early 2006, said Hogan. He took a leave of absence from “One Life to Live” to undergo treatment and returned to the show later that year.
Carey’s tycoon character died in his sleep in an August 2007 episode but was brought back twice in vid
