Stuart Whitman, born Stuart Maxwell Whitman (February 1, 1928 – March 16, 2020), was an American actor, known for his lengthy career in film and television. Whitman was born in San Francisco and raised in New York until his family relocated to Los Angeles. In 1948, Whitman was discharged from the Corps of Engineers in the U.S. Army and started to study acting.[1] From 1951 to 1957, Whitman had a streak working in mostly bit parts in films, including When Worlds Collide (1951),[2] The Day the Earth Stood Still (1951),[3] Barbed Wire (1952),[4] and The Man from the Alamo (1952).[5] On television, Whitman guest-starred in series such as Dr. Christian, The Roy Rogers Show, and Death Valley Days, and also had a recurring role on Highway Patrol.[citation needed] Whitman's first lead role was in John H. Auer's Johnny Trouble (1957).[6]

In the late 1950s, 20th Century Fox was on a drive to develop new talent, hence Whitman was signed to the star-building program.[7] Whitman, now in the lead cast, acted in Darby's Rangers (1958),[8] China Doll (1958),[9] Ten North Frederick (1958),[10] The Decks Ran Red (1958),[11] Hound-Dog Man (1959),[12] These Thousand Hills (1959),[13] The Story of Ruth (1960),[14] Murder, Inc. (1960),[15] The Comancheros (1961),[16] and The Mark (1961),[17] the latter of which he was nominated for an Academy Award for Best Actor.[18]

Some of Whitman's subsequent roles included The Longest Day (1962),[19] Those Magnificent Men in Their Flying Machines (1965),[20] Cimarron Strip (1967),[21] Night of the Lepus (1972),[22] etc. Whitman also acted regularly on television, with some of his credits including Fantasy Island,,[23] The Streets of San Francisco,[24] Love, American Style, Quincy, M.E.,[25] The Pirate,[26] Condominium, Knight Rider,[27] Matt Houston,[28] A-Team,[29] S.W.A.T.,[30] Murder, She Wrote,[1] Once Upon a Texas Train,[31] Knots Landing,[1] The Adventures of Brisco County, Jr.,[32] and Walker, Texas Ranger.[1] From 1988 to 1992, he acted as Jonathan Kent on the TV series Superboy.[1] He was seen in projects until 2000, after which he was reported to be retired,[33] and died in 2020.[1]
