MINI BIO:
Fair-haired actor whose slightly sinister charm won him some good post-war roles on Broadway. On moving into films in 1950, his crooked smile, shifty eyes and husky voice qualified him for a whole range of treacherous villains. In the fifties he went into TV, and sixties film roles proved to be only pale echoes of his meatier parts at Paramount and Universal.
