MINI BIO:
Edward Andrews was an avuncular, heftily-built American actor whose big, beaming, bespectacled features could adapt just as easily to comic panic or coldly genuine menace. It was in the latter vein that he broke into films (in The Phenix City Story) after years of solid work on Broadway, but he was soon instantly identifiable as characters whose hale-and-hearty exteriors hid a wide variety of characteristics beneath. He was an incorrigible stealer of the stars' limelight in his peak (1955-66) years. He died from a heart attack.

Edward Andrews Quotes:
Defense Secretary:
Don't let those double-breasted suits up there fool you. Those boys are tough.
Defense Secretary: Oh, you'll be recompensed. Goodness knows the Armed Services are never chintzy. Now what we do, we beard the Appropriations boys in Congress. Matter of fact, I'm putting two of my bravest financial officers on the mission.
Quentin Judd: Ladies and gentlemen, may the stag outrun the hounds!
