Norman Lloyd Dead at 106 (1 Viewer)

[Adam Lenhardt]

Norman Lloyd, an actor/producer/director whose career spanned an astounding nine decades, was best known for his role as the fair and kind Dr. Auschlander on "St. Elsewhere". He was also known for his collaborations with Alfred Hitchcock: as the titular antagonist in Saboteur and as one of the insane asylum patients in Spellbound. He would go on to direct 19 episodes of "Alfred Hitchcock Presents".

He continued acting well into his second century; his last film, Trainwreck, was only released a few years ago.

He was actually the producer along with Joan Harrison of "Alfred Hitchcock Presents". A great actor! My favorite role that he played was in the WWII movie "A Walk in the Sun". May he R.I.P.

On the lighter side i thought he was funny playing Carruthers in the Get Smart film The Nude Bomb. RIP.

from Hitchcock's Saboteur to Apatow's Trainwreck in a career that spanned 9 decades, the last of the Legendary Old Guard comes to an end, watch his work nightly as Hitchcock Presents is a daily for me and his episodes are just fun, loved him on St. Elsewhere.

RIP sir.

Was he the oldest living known actor until today?

 

[Rob W]

Met him on a TCM Cruise in 2013. He was a genuinely nice,friendly man.

 

[TravisR]

The guy was still pretty funny in Trainwreck when he was a young man of 101.

 

[Mike Frezon]

He was absolutely marvelous on St. Elsewhere--one of our favorite shows. His was a steady, assuring presence among a diverse cast of mostly young actors.

 

[Matt Hough]

A wonderful presence both before and behind the camera. He'll be much missed, that's for sure.

Was it in Scene of the Crime where he played a street crook who'd say "Yuck Yuck" all the time?

R.I.P., dear man.

Speaking of Norman Lloyd's long time collaboration with Hitchcock, and his role as associate producer/writer/director and sometimes actor on the television series, I've taken these screen caps from the Fabulous Films R2 DVD of one of his acting appearances in Alfred Hitchcock Presents season 7, Maria, (Oct. 24, 1961)...this episode directed by Boris Sagal...with Nita Talbot, Edmond Hashim, Merry Anders...and a few shots of Hitchcock's opening and closing segments from this weird little episode...

Rest in Peace Norman Lloyd for your long life, well lived...

yes, younger, and most now creeping towards their 70's, I wonder how many of them utilized him as a mentor, would love to hear the stories, from some of them now, almost 40 years later, Daniels, Washington, Harmon, Begley Jr., Morse and of course, Woodard.

what a great ensemble.

Yes, that was him.

He began his career when Orson Welles and John Houseman asked him to join the Mercury Theater which he did starring on Broadway in Julius Caesar and performing on radio with the Mercury players. He admitted that his biggest career mistake was turning down a role in Citizen Kane.
Goodnight, Norman Lloyd.

Under the category of someone has to play "the villain" ...
