***** ROBERT RODAN - GET WELL WISHES
ROBERT RODAN (Real Name: ROBERT TRIMAS) portrayed the “Frankenstein Creation” called ADAM in the long-running 1968 Dark Shadows storyline in which “Dr. Lang” (Addison Powell) sought to create a “living being” from dead human body parts, lightning-electricity, and Barnabas’ supernatural Life Force. The “creature” struggled to understand his existence and how to deal with the human world around him.
Since the early days of DARK SHADOWS fan gatherings in the 1980s-2000s, Robert’s been a frequent and enthusiastic presence. He enjoyed meeting and interacting with fans of all ages at the DS FESTIVAL events. He also hosted his own birthday party one year, celebrating with DS friends and fans.
Leaving his acting career behind in the 1970s, Robert moved to California and became a successful real estate broker among other endeavors. He also actively pursued his great love of sailing. He recently moved to Oregon.
ROBERT now is facing a serious heart health situation. SHADOWGRAM shares that he would enjoy hearing from DS fans and friends at the following address:
Robert Trimas
11858 SW Lesser Road
Portland, OR 97219
SHADOWGRAM sends encouraging healing wishes to Robert and also thanks every DS fan who kindly reaches out to him with a card or note of goodwill.
