A former U.S. Marine, Carey has made appearances in films such as This Woman is Dangerous with Joan Crawford (1952) Calamity Jane (1953), Pushover (1954) and Monster (1979). Carey also had roles on the 7 episodes of the TV series Laredo and was narrator for 31 episodes of the documentary Untamed World. He also starred as Philip Marlowe in a 1959 television series of the same name.
He most recently appeared as the protective Texan patriarch Asa Buchanan on the ABC soap opera, One Life to Live. Before that, Carey had played four different characters on as many episodes of 77 Sunset Strip. Carey`s career started with ten characters in ten episodes of the Ford Television Theatre, a highly popular drama series of the 1950s.
Carey became well-known for a series of tongue-in-cheek television commercials for Granny Goose potato chips, in which he self-identified as "Granny Goose", portraying the company`s spokesperson as a tough cowboy.
Carey was diagnosed with lung cancer in January 2006 and underwent chemotherapy.
In late March 2007, it was announced that Carey would be exiting the show. Carey had appeared in one episode of One Life To Live in 2003 and one episode of All My Children in 2004. He appeared in an additional 9 episodes of One Life to Live between January 3, 2007 and May 16, 2007. Carey turned down an offer to go to recurring status with the show. The character of Asa died off-screen four months later.
