| 7 | He started out as a child star, playing Colin Craven in the 1949 film adaptation of ''Literature/TheSecretGarden'' and the title characters of ''The Boy with Green Hair'' and the 1950 film adaptation of ''Literature/{{Kim}}''. As an adult, he was probably best known on TV as Admiral Al Calavicci on ''Series/QuantumLeap'' and Brother John Cavil on ''Series/BattlestarGalactica2003'', and in film for Creator/DavidLynch's ''Film/{{Dune|1984}}'' and ''Film/BlueVelvet'', the latter of which featured him memorably lip-syncing to Music/RoyOrbison's "In Dreams". |

His older brother Creator/GuyStockwell (1933–2002) was also an actor, while their father Harry Stockwell (1902–1984) was the voice of the Prince in ''WesternAnimation/SnowWhiteAndTheSevenDwarfs''. |
