Karl Malden
Karl Malden (born Mladen George Sekulovich; March 22, 1912 – July 1, 2009) was an American stage, movie and television actor who first achieved acclaim in the original Broadway productions of Arthur Miller's ''All My Sons'' and Tennessee Williams' ''A Streetcar Named Desire'' in 1946-7. Recreating the role of Mitch in the 1951 film of ''Streetcar'', he won the Academy Award for Best Supporting Actor.Malden primarily was a character actor, who according to Robert Berkvist, "for more than 60 years brought an intelligent intensity and a homespun authenticity to roles in theater, film, and television", especially in such classic films as ''A Streetcar Named Desire'' and ''On the Waterfront'' (1954), for which he received a second Best Supporting Oscar nomination.
He also played in high-profile Hollywood films such as ''I Confess'' (1953), ''Baby Doll'' (1956), ''The Hanging Tree'' (1959), ''Pollyanna'' (1960), ''One-Eyed Jacks'' (1961), ''How the West Was Won'' (1962), ''Gypsy'' (1962), ''Cheyenne Autumn'' (1964), ''Birdman of Alcatraz'' (1964) and ''Patton'' (1970). From 1972 to 1977, he portrayed the leading role of Lt. Mike Stone in the primetime television crime drama ''The Streets of San Francisco''. He was later an advertising spokesman for American Express.
Film and culture critic Charles Champlin described Malden as "an Everyman, but one whose range moved easily up and down the levels of society and the IQ scale, from heroes to heavies and ordinary, decent guys just trying to get along", and at the time of his death, Malden was described as "one of the great character actors of his time" who created a number of "powerhouse performances on screen".
Malden served as president of the Academy of Motion Picture Arts and Sciences from 1989 to 1992. Provided by Wikipedia
