Terry joined the cast of Voyage following the premature death of Henry Kulky, who played Chief 'Curly' Jones in the first season.Terry hit it off with Voyage star, Richard Basehart when they did some impromtu filming together for some filler material was needed to complete an episode.
A few years ago I attended a UK Cult TV convention, and Terry was announced as one of the guests, along with Allan Hunt, who played Seaview crewman, Stuart Riley (he's the actor in the middle of this Actor's Database photo, above) Allan did make it to the Con, but sadly at the last minute, Terry couldn't attend so I, unfortunately lost my chance of meeting the Chief.
Solomon 'Terry' Becker aka Chief Sharkey
