This website has been created in memory of Jack Lord.
John Joseph Patrick Ryan (December 30, 1920 – January 21, 1998), best known by his stage name Jack Lord, was an American television, film, and Broadway actor as well as an accomplished artist. He was best known for his starring role as Steve McGarrett in the American television program Hawaii Five-O from 1968 to 1980. Lord also appeared in several classic feature films earlier in his career, among them Man of the West (1958) starring Gary Cooper and the first James Bond film Dr. No (1962) starring Sean Connery. Having graduated with a degree in Fine Arts, Jack Lord has followed his passion in arts until just before his death in 1998. This website has been created to reflect on Jack Lords career and where possible, his life.
