Being ruled by the Moon, phases of the lunar cycle deepen their internal mysteries and create fleeting emotional patterns that are beyond their control. As children, they don't have enough coping and defensive mechanisms for the outer world, and have to be approached with care and understanding, for that is what they give in return.

Biography/Timeline

1972

O'Keeffe was born in Ripley, Tennessee. A star football athlete, he attended the United States Air Force Academy and played halfback on the freshman football team in 1972. However, in 1973 he transferred to Mississippi State University under a football scholarship, playing as an offensive lineman. During this time, he bulked up to 240 lb (110 kg). Subsequently, he transferred to University of the South in Sewanee, Tennessee and became a small college All-American playing both tight end and linebacker.

1980

Although O'Keeffe is known for his big break as Tarzan, he is also remembered for his performances in the title role of the first three Ator sword and sorcery films produced in Europe in the 1980s. The series gained notoriety in 1991 after a re-edited version of the second installment, released as Cave Dwellers, was lampooned on the television series Mystery Science Theater 3000 (MST3K). The episode, which soon became immensely popular among fans, included one of the most-quoted quips in the show's history: "How much Keeffe is in this movie anyway?" "Miles O'Keeffe!" Unlike some of MST3K's subjects (such as Sandy Frank), O'Keeffe is considered to be a "good sport" and is a fan of the series. He enjoyed the MST3K treatment of the film so much that he requested a copy of the episode.

1999

O'Keeffe gained cult status in the UK between 1999 and 2002 as a result of being targeted by chat show host Graham Norton for prank calls, eventually appearing on the show So Graham Norton to great acclaim.
