	Actors - Paul Cronin

Paul Cronin (born July 8, 1938) is an Australian actor who shot to fame playing motorcycle policeman Gary Hogan in the Crawford Productions drama Matlock Police (1971-1975). After that series ended he continued the role in the spin-off Solo One (1976), a series continuing Hogan's motorcycle policeman exploits. The spin-off, which ran for just one 13-episode season, was aimed at children, so it eschewed the violence and serious crime of Matlock Police. He followed this role with the central role of Dave Sullivan in the popular soap opera The Sullivans.

In 1986 Cronin pooled money together with Christopher Skase to own the Brisbane Bears in the then-Victorian Football League. He was president of the club from 1987-1989, when he was forced to resign following financial difficulties.

In 2005, he was seriously embarrassed when the retirement investment company that he and Dawn Fraser had been advertising on television for some years, collapsed and the directors fled, owing their investors millions of dollars. He and Fraser made a public apology for their unwitting contribution to the financial plight of many people.
