Biography

Born in Eastern Europe, Steve Hawkes (aka Hucks) emigrated to America as a teenager to pursue an acting career, citing Johnny Weissmuller as a childhood influence. He played a Tarzan-type character in a series of Spanish-language movies. In Spain his character was referred to as "Tarzan", but when they were released in English-language territories they directly avoided mentioning the Tarzan name, instead referring to Hawkes' character as "Zan" (as in Tarzan in the Golden Grotto (1969). In 1972 he played the lead in the much-loved exploitation movie Blood Freak (1972),in which he turns into a monster turkey.

In the early '70s he was badly burned in an on-set accident, putting an end to his acting career. Now completely retired, he runs an animal sanctuary out of Florida.
