Biography
Richard John Chaves is an American character actor. In the early 1980s, he began work as an actor taking on various soap opera roles until he gained a role in 1987 as Poncho in the science fiction film Predator.

Chaves once calculated that the volume of fan mail he received outnumbered the rest of the cast members by a four or five to one ratio.
