Scottish actor of film, stage and television, best known for his portrayal of the Machiavellian Tory politician Francis Urquhart in the BBC's House of Cards trilogy (1990, 1993, 1995). Richardson was also a leading Shakespearean stage actor. He was married to actress Maroussia Frank and had two sons. He was The Herald in Peter Brook's production of Marat/Sade in London in 1964; in the New York City transfer he took the lead role of Jean-Paul Marat (and so became the first actor to appear nude on the Broadway stage), a performance he repeated for the 1967 film Marat/Sade. Ian Richardson was appointed Commander of the Order of the British Empire (CBE) in the 1989 New Year Honours. He died in his sleep of a heart attack on the morning of 9 February 2007, aged 72. Dame Helen Mirren dedicated her 2006 Best Actress BAFTA award for her portrayal of Queen Elizabeth II in the film The Queen to Richardson. In her acceptance speech she said that without his support early in her career, she might not have been so successful, before breaking down and leaving the stage. Link to Wikipedia biography
