  • Weaver's classical theater training (playing everything from Hamlet to Sherlock Holmes) often led to parts as aristocratic tyrants, or desperate men on the brink. He won the Tony award for Best Actor in the 1970 Broadway play Child's Play (opposite Pat Hingle).

His most substantial TV role was as concentration camp prisoner Josef Weiss in the 1978 miniseries Holocaust. Weaver's film debut came with the 1964 thriller Fail Safe (a less humorous counterpart to Dr. Strangelove), as the erratic Col. Caserio. Subsequent movies ranged from Marathon Man (as Professor Biesenthal) to the exploitative Demon Seed (as a scientist who inadvertently invents an evil rapist computer), plus a supporting cameo in The Thomas Crown Affair (with Pierce Brosnan). In later years, Weaver was a frequent narrator on The History Channel.
