#Quote
1[on playing Mr. Green in The Taking of Pelham One Two Three (1974)] I have always wanted to get away from playing Mr. Nice Guy. I loathe nice guys because I am one, but let's face it, there's a lot of nastiness in me.
2The supporting role is always potentially the most interesting in a film.
3I think the average guy has always identified with me.
4I'll tell you, I still don't feel whatever change you're supposed to feel when your name goes up above the title. I think that's because this star thing has never been the first consideration with me. Never. The work has always come first.
#Fact
1He played the husband of his real life ex-wife Joyce Van Patten in St. Elmo's Fire (1985).
2He appeared in three films directed by Sidney Lumet: 12 Angry Men (1957), The Anderson Tapes (1971) and Murder on the Orient Express (1974).
3He appeared in two productions which concerned the Japanese attack on Pearl Harbor on December 7, 1941: Westinghouse Desilu Playhouse: The Time Element (1958) and Tora! Tora! Tora! (1970). He played Dr. Gillespie in the former and Admiral Husband Kimmel in the latter.
4He made guest appearances on both The Twilight Zone (1959) and The Twilight Zone (1985).
5Father of a son, Adam Balsam and a daughter, Zoe Balsam, from his marriage to Irene Miller.
6Played a psychiatrist in Rod Sterling's Westinghouse Desilu Playhouse: The Time Element (1958), which dealt with a patient who kept dreaming that he was back in the time just prior to the bombing of Pearl Harbor. In Tora! Tora! Tora! (1970), he played Admiral Kimmel the naval commander of Pearl Harbor at the time of the Japanese attack.
7Born in The Bronx in New York City, to Jewish parents Albert Balsam, a manufacturer of ladies sportswear, and Lillian (née Weinstein). He was the eldest of three children.
8Part of the drama club at DeWitt Clinton High School, he studied dramatics at The New School in New York City and then served in the Army Air Corps during World War II.
9Worked as a waiter and as an usher at Radio City Music Hall in New York during his early years of struggle.
10Made his film debut in the Actors Studio-dominated film On the Waterfront (1954).
11Broadway columnist Earl Wilson dubbed him "The Bronx Barrymore".
12Appears to have died of natural causes. A maid found him lying on the floor near his bed in the upscale Residenza Di Ripetta while he was vacationing in Italy.
13Continued to return to the Actors Studio periodically in later years.
14Played Carroll O'Connor's Jewish business partner for a couple of seasons on Archie Bunker's Place (1979). Previously they had performed together in the The Sacco-Vanzetti Story on Sunday Showcase (1959).
15Former father-in-law of George Clooney.
16He would express frustration when fans asking for autographs would only seem to remember him falling backwards down the stairway in Psycho (1960). He felt there were so many other challenging roles he would rather be remembered for. Always charming, he simply smiled and provided the signature, just the same.
17A veteran of the famous Actors Studio in New York.
18He is the former uncle by marriage of Vincent Van Patten, Nels Van Patten and James Van Patten as he was married to their aunt Joyce Van Patten.
19He is the former brother-in-law of Dick Van Patten, Pat Van Patten and Timothy Van Patten.
20Won Broadway's 1968 Tony Award as Best Actor (Dramatic) for "You Know I Can't Hear You When the Water's Running."
21Studied Monkey Kung Fu as a hobby.
22He was the first to record the voice of HAL in Stanley Kubrick's 2001: A Space Odyssey (1968), but was passed over in favor of Douglas Rain.
23Graduated DeWitt Clinton High School in New York. [1938]
24Father of actress Talia Balsam, from his marriage to Joyce Van Patten.
