James McEachin Facts
African-American actor signed to a Universal contract in the 1960s and played positive images for the most part. Crime drama seemed to be his forte, having his own 1970s series as a more-brains-than-brawn detective in "Tenafly" (1973), then a steady, recurring role as dogged Lieutenant Brock in the "Perry Mason" TV-movie dramas of the '80s.

August 18, 2005 CA Congressman David Dreier awarded him medals of valor earned (but never issued by the government) to include the Purple Heart and Silver Star, some fifty-four years after he served in the Korean War. The Benjamin Franklin Award-winning Farewell to the Mockingbirds (written by McEachin in 1999) speaks to the issue of racism and service in the Armed Forces. McEachin was completely unaware of the Silver Star until "Team Dreier" presented the findings.
