Branscombe Richmond is a true renaissance man on wheels; a television
and cinema actor, musician, humanitarian, activist.
Of Aleut Indian descent, Branscombe has said, "I am a Native
American first, last and always." He is able to combine his dedication
to Native American causes with fundraising through motorcycling
events. (The 'Trail of Tear Ride' drew 90,000-plus cyclists - and
Richmond and his band "The Renegade Posse" also performed at the
event.)
VP of the Office of Indian Affairs for Indian Motorcycle, Branscombe
has also been named Mr. Showmanship of the Year, CMA Peoples Choice
Humanitarian Award of the Year, USA's Native American Entertainer
of the Year.
"Bobby Sixkiller" in the second most watched show in the world -
Renegade - some of his other credits include Scorpion King, Destiny,
Batman Returns, Hard to Kill, Commando, License to Kill, Star Trek II,
Walker Texas Ranger, Hunter, Jake and the Fatman, and Beauty and the
Beast.
Though Branscombe is a wonderful ambassador for the sport of
motorcycling, one of his friends gave him a greater award...
"Branscombe is a place where people gather around.... He is a village
of humanity and friendship to all."
