I have no idea what happened to him. He was a very popular physique model in the early 1960's.
Many models had day jobs and simply moved on when physique magazines were replaced in the USA with porn mags in the late 1960's. You likely read my interview on my blog

with model Rick Alexander. He modeled, then owned and operated a gym, and is now semi-retired.
Walt Needham passed away last year. He was a very good-looking bodybuilder and an amazing person: http://articles.courant.com/2012-08-24/features/hc-extraordinary-life-needham-0826-20120822_1_blind-people-james-needham-blind-person
I hope Richard is pleased he still has fans. Jim Drinkward's daughter left a nice note on this blog that her father would be very happy to know people were still into his photos.
Any idea what ever came of the great Richard Bennett?
