Biography

Wayde Preston (September 10, 1929–February 6, 1992) or William Erskine Strange was a television actor noted for the series Colt .45 (1957-1960) and for his appearance as Waco Williams in a 1958 episode of Maverick (1957) entitled "The Saga of Waco Williams". Tom Selleck's recurring comical character of Lance White in The Rockford Files was loosely based by writer/producer Stephen J. Cannell upon Waco Williams (Selleck and Preston also resembled each other.) Selleck immediately got his own series, Magnum, P.I. (1980) after these appearances. "The Saga of Waco Williams," a critical favorite which paired Preston with James Garner, drew more viewers than any other episode of Maverick and remains a career milestone for Preston.
