# Quote 1 Hollywood sucks. I've got the bruises to prove it. 2 I was told, when I first started acting, that I had a face of a convicted sex pervert. One casting director actually told me I looked like a child molester. Shows that you can make a career out of anything in Hollywood. 3 When I tell people the movies I did, they don't believe me. I tell them I did Ocean's 11 (1960), they laugh at me. I tell them I did Bullitt (1968), they call me a liar. By the time I get around to telling them I was in The Graduate (1967), they're on the phone calling the nut house. 4 I've been in Hollywood for over 40 years. I've worked on over 100 shows and movies. But I'm famous for being a homophobic, perverted, leering, dirty old man who peeps on young girls and verbally abuses his wife. When I die, they're going to say "Mr. Roper died." They won't even use my real name. 5 [on rival Jack Klugman ] What has he got that I haven't got? What did he do differently? I could have killed as Oscar. I would have been great as Quincy. I wouldn't have been so hammy. Klugman overacted every scene. You want the show to be good, pick me. You want a chain-smoking jackass who ruins any credibility for your project, I'll give you Klugman's number. 6 I liked [Dean Martin ] and [Sammy Davis Jr. ] and [Frank Sinatra ]. They were great. [Joey Bishop ] and [Peter Lawford ] were creeps. Bishop kept looking at me funny when I changed. Don't get me started on Lawford. 7 If I could do it all over again, I'd be the mailman. I love housewives and I hate dogs. What more is there? 8 They made a Mr. Roper doll. It looked nothing like me. Some people said it was too ugly, some people said it was too good looking. 9 I enjoyed acting and marveled that one could get paid for doing it. 10 [interview in Prevu magazine, #13, 4/88] This hook nose and crab meister attitude has gotten me every job I've ever had. And more divorces than I care to remember.
# Fact 1 Had two daughters, Tracy and Mara, with his second wife. 2 First wife was his college sweetheart. 3 Credited with two kills over Japanese fighters while serving as a gunner on B-24 "Liberator" bomber aircraft in the Fifth Air Force (Pacific Theater) during WWII. 4 Was believed to have had a long, bitter and acrimonious feud with actor Jack Klugman that lasted over 40 years. However, it was later revealed that the feud was a hoax and the two actors were actually friends who grew up in the Philadelphia area. 5 Studied acting with Stella Adler . 6 1946 graduate of Temple University. 7 Inurned at Mount Sinai Memorial Park, Los Angeles, California - Garden of Heritage, Columbarium of Tradition, Niche 1601A 8 He and Karen adopted a baby boy, Kasey, who was diagnosed with cerebral palsy at 5 months.
