Moore played the British secret agent James Bond in seven feature films between 1973 and 1985; he remains the oldest actor to have played the character. After graduating from the Royal Academy of Dramatic Art (RADA), Moore worked as a model and made several appearances in minor films and television dramas before finding more substantial roles in the television serials ''Ivanhoe'' (1958–1959), ''The Alaskans'' (1960–1961) and ''Maverick'' (1961). Moore's most significant television work came with his portrayal of Simon Templar in ''The Saint'' from 1962 to 1969 and his starring alongside Tony Curtis in the television drama ''The Persuaders!'' (1971). Moore was cast as Bond in 1973 and portrayed him in ''Live and Let Die'' (1973); ''The Man with the Golden Gun'' (1974); ''The Spy Who Loved Me'' (1977); ''Moonraker'' (1979); ''For Your Eyes Only'' (1981); ''Octopussy'' (1983); and ''A View to a Kill'' (1985). Moore worked regularly throughout his Bond era, and has worked sporadically since. He is a Goodwill Ambassador for the charity organization UNICEF, and has demonstrated against the production of foie gras. Moore has been a tax exile from the United Kingdom since the 1970s. Moore has been married four times, including to the Welsh singer Dorothy Squires and the Italian actress Luisa Mattioli, with whom he had three children.
