Pendragons Princess

Thom Christopher, the actor who played Hawk in the second season of “Buck Rogers in the 25th Century” and Carlo Hesser in “One Life to Live”, is childfree.

The October 1990 issue of Soap Opera Digest reports that Thom, and his wife Judith, are in fact childfree by choice. This is a rather pleasant surprise, since I have always liked the Hawk character, especially the way Thom looked in those spandex tights (great hind view!). In the interview by Donna Hoke, Thom admits that with his and his wife’s busy schedule as actors, they have next to no time for taking care of kids. They have plenty of nieces and nephews, though, who they can splurge on when the chance comes. Thom also admits the reason people have children is because they feel pressured by society to do so, and that having children is a tremendous responsibility. Of course, Thom has many other responsibilities, including charity work for AIDS and the Special Olympics. Anyone with sexy, smoldering eyes like Thom’s is OK in my book, and his being childfree makes him even better. Love ya, Hawk.
