Dirk Benedict is an American actor known for playing Lieutenant Starbuck in Battlestar Galactica 1978 and Galactica 1980.[1]
Starbuck is one of the two characters Benedict is best known for, the other being that of "Faceman" Peck in the action-adventure series, The A-Team later in the 1980s. In the pilot episode of that series (a moment replayed during the series opening credits), Peck visits the Universal Studios Tour, where he does a double take as he passes someone dressed in a Cylon Warrior costume.
