#Quote
1Mark Twain is something precious to me. It's my side arm through life.
2Most everybody today that's young is operating under the insane idea that what we've got going on is the best that there is. But it's not. Current entertainment is cheap, shoddy, infantile, adolescent, not grown-up. We're fed imagery that's really pornographic, by people with an infantile idea of sexuality. It's a sad and depressing thing.
3On stage your job as actor is to present and show the story by your behavior, body language, and vocal work. In film, you musn't. You just have to be. You are...and it's mostly intuitive. The amount of characterization you do is very minimal. In fact, you try not to act at all. It's actually better that way, and it's taken me years to learn that.
#Fact
1As of 2014, has appeared in three films that were nominated for the Best Picture Oscar: All the President's Men (1976), Julia (1977) and Lincoln (2012).
2After his numerous portrayals of Abraham Lincoln, one of which won him an Emmy, he played a supporting role in Lincoln (2012), for which Daniel Day-Lewis won an Oscar.
3The only actor (so far) to win an Emmy Award for having played Abraham Lincoln.
4He studied drama at HB Studio in Greenwich Village in New York City.
5His publicist is Steve Rohr.
6Served in the Army during WWII, and acted in some plays where he was stationed.
7Won the 1966 Tony Award (New York City) for Actor in a Drama for "Mark Twain Tonight".
8Portrayed Abraham Lincoln in The Ed Sullivan Show (1948), Lincoln (1974), North and South (1985) and North and South, Book II (1986).
9In 2008, at age 82, he became the oldest male actor to be nominated for an Academy Award. His nomination displaced Ralph Richardson, who previously held that distinction.
10Fans consider his 1968 live stage performance of "I Never Sang for My Father" one of his best, seldom mentioned acts. Before the motion picture of the same name was released two years later, starring Gene Hackman.
11Stepfather of Mary Dixie Carter and Ginna Carter.
12Ex-brother-in-law of Ellen Rossen and Robert Rossen.
13Has starred in two projects based on John Grisham books with The Firm (1993) and The Street Lawyer (2003).

15He was just 29 when he began touring his one-man show of the elderly Mark Twain, even performing for President Dwight D. Eisenhower at one point. In June 2005, he returned his "Mark Twain Tonight" to Broadway for a sold out, month-long run, receiving rave reviews from The New York Times and Wall Street Journal.
16In his guest appearance on The West Wing (1999), his character first describes the fate of the USS Pueblo, an intelligence gathering surface vessel, caught spying by North Korea in 1968, while referring to the fictional USS Portland. In 1973's Pueblo (1973), Holbrook portrayed the lead character.
17One daughter, Eve, with Carol Eve Rossen.
