Biography
American actor with a nervous, sensitive look and a lopsided grin. The son of an actor, he worked summer stock as a kid. At age 57, he was married (1973) with two teenagers; however, in an interview he reported that he was afraid of sex up to the age of 40, as his mom had been continually touching and caressing him in a way that was distressing. As an adult he sought psychiatric help and at the age of 40, he lost his virginity in an explosive love affair with Virginia Principal. He married Berry Berenson and had two sons, Oz and Elvis.
Perkins was memorable in "Friendly Persuasion," 1956 and a cult favorite for "Psycho," 1960.
He died of AIDS on 9/12/1992, Hollywood, CA.
