Raymond St. Jacques may be known to many viewers as Simon Black on the final season of “Rawhide”, a regular character which made him the first African American actor with a regular role on a Western TV series.

As well as acting, St. Jacques directed & starred in the critically-acclaimed 1973 film “Book of Numbers”
