I can't believe this will be the first photos of Kip Behar on my blog. Over the years I've seen many photos of this handsome blond who posed for most of the SoCal photographers in the late 1950s and early 1960s.
I don't think Kip ever won any bodybuilding titles and biographical info on this guy is pretty much nonexistent. But there are many photos of this guy on the net if you have an hour or two to kill. To start your collection here are two photos of your new favorite blond.

I don't think I've ever seen the AMG picture before, and Kip's trademark hair style seems to be in an early version. Thanks!
ReplyDeleteAccurate bios on these beefcake guys are difficult to find. Kip is supposed to be credited with a staring role in a 1961 horror film that nobody's heard about. What little is written about makes no mention of a wife/girlfriend or family. By today's standards, that's a given that he's gay, that wasn't an assumption in the 50's and 60's when he was a nude model. I've also read comments on vlogs and photo sites with posters saying that they recognized the senior version of him "out" and clubbing as recently as 2012. The accuracy of this information is always questionable.
ReplyDeleteThanks for writing.
