In 2006, Allan was featured in four soon to be released movies:  ''My Sexiest Year,'' with Frankie Muniz, ''Rise'' with Lucy Liu and Michael Chiklis, ''Lies & Alibis'' with Steve Coogan and Rebecca Romijn, and ''The Man in the Chair,'' with Christopher Plummer.

Allan began his distinguished acting career as a teenager in New York,.working with immortals such as Edward G. Robinson, Claude Raines, Ralph Bellamy, Jack Palance, Kim Hunter, Milton Berle and Henry Fonda. Without warning, Allan was caught up in the 'Red Scare' and blacklisted. He cajoled his way onto Wall Street and later opened his own brokerage firm. Later he became an expert in modern art, opening the Allan Rich Galleries on Madison Avenue, where he began selling major works by Miro, Calder and Salvador Dali. His experience with Dali, in 1970, led him to co-write a screenplay ''Memories of Surrealism.''    

            Despite his enormous success outside of the entertainment field, Rich re-launched his film career in 1973 playing the D.A. in ''Serpico'' with Al Pacino.  Allan went on to appear in more than 75 television shows, MOW's and 68 features that include ''Frances, ''Eating Raoul,'' and ''Guilty By Suspicion.''
