According to his son Anton Ram Fernandez Roldan, his dad MR. CARLOS SALAZAR (aka Carlos Rusty Salazar) was born on Oct. 26, 1930 -- and not 1933 as what's published on Wikipedia. Making him 90 yrs old (2020) -- the OLDEST living Pinoy male actor.
He was an original LVN star before he transferred to Sampaguita Pictures in the 1950s. His family still resides in Philam Homes, QC. A few years back, he still accepted lolo roles on teleseryes.
