Wayne Maunder
Wayne Ernest Maunder (December 19, 1937 – November 11, 2018) was a Canadian-born American actor who starred in three American television series between 1967 and 1974.
From September 6 to December 27, 1967, Maunder starred as 28-year-old George Armstrong Custer in the series Custer set during the time that Custer was stationed in the American West.
Maunder's next series was Lancer, with co-stars Andrew Duggan, James Stacy, and Paul Brinegar. Lancer ran from 1968 to 1970, with an additional rebroadcast cycle in Summer 1971.
Maunder's last regular series, Chase, is a 23-episode drama about an undercover police unit which aired on NBC during the 1973–1974 television season, co-starring Mitchell Ryan as Chase Reddick and Reid Smith as officer Norm Hamilton. Maunder played the role of police Sergeant Sam MacCray, one of whose duties was to handle the police dog named "Fuzz". A Jack Webb production, Chase was created by Stephen J. Cannell.[citation needed]
Maunder was born in Four Falls in the Canadian province of New Brunswick, but was reared, along with four siblings, in Bangor, Maine, where his family moved when he was four years old and which he considered to be his hometown. His mother was Lydia Maunder (1913–1980).
Maunder graduated in 1957 from Bangor High School, where he played football and baseball.[citation needed]
He studied English literature plus drama at El Camino College Compton Center, then known as Compton Junior College in Compton, California. He participated in an amateur play and began a career in acting.
Maunder made his first screen appearance on February 4, 1967, as Michael Duquesne in "Race for a Rainbow", an episode of The Monroes, starring Michael Anderson, Jr., and Barbara Hershey. Maunder was credited as "James Wilder" on The Monroes, but decided thereafter to return to his own name.
