Bonner was born in Little Rock, Arkansas. He was 25 when he starred in the classic horror film Equinox which was a student film which has gone on to cult status.
He appeared in many TV shows such as EMERGENCY, THE YOUNG LAWYERS, and MANNIX until he got the role he is best known for, that of Herb Tarlek on WKRP IN CINCINNATI. His character was a sleazy advertising man who could never get a good account.
After that 4 year run he went on to do more TV and his acting career lasted until 2014. Bonner passed away on June 17th, 2021 from Lewy Body Dementia. He was 79.
