George Raymond Shannon (December 30, 1939 – March 1, 2023) was an American professor of gerontology at the USC Leonard Davis School of Gerontology,[1] inaugural holder of the Kevin Xu Chair in Gerontology, and director of the Rongxiang Xu Regenerative Life Science Laboratory.[2] He was also a television and film actor, particularly known for his appearances in soap operas, including How to Survive a Marriage, Search for Tomorrow, Generations, and General Hospital. He played a leading role in the French surreal drama film I Will Walk Like a Crazy Horse, as well as starring in the X-rated film, Sugar Cookies—both from 1973.
In 1995, Shannon returned to college to pursue a Bachelor's, Master's, and PhD in gerontology after a nearly 30-year career in acting.[3]
