The Beloved Stars of Hollywood Who Have Aged Too Flawlessly To Be True
Richard Keith — 1950
Richard Keith is a former American child star, most famous for his role on I Love Lucy as the beloved “Little Ricky”. Most are unaware of this but Richard Keith is actually not his real name – his original last name, Thibodeaux, a mix between Cajun & French, was found to be too difficult to pronounce to an American audience, so he promptly changed his last name!
Richard Keith with his wife and daughter eventually settled in Jackson, Mississippi. Thibodeaux dabbled with jazz bands locally for a short time before joining a newly revamped Christian rock band.
Richard is the last living regular appearing cast member from the totally iconic and one-of-a-kind show. He represents the legacy of these shows that single-handedly changed the course of American television! Thibodeaux or Keith – we will always remember him as the wonderful and lovable Little Ricky!
