'''Lloyd Benedict Nolan''' (August 11, 1902 – September 27, 1985) was an American stage, film and television actor who rose from a supporting player and B-movie lead early in his career to featured player status after creating the role of Captain Queeg in [[Herman Wouk]]'s play ''[[The Caine Mutiny Court-Martial (play)|The Caine Mutiny Court-Martial]]'' in the mid-1950s. Nolan won a Best Actor [[Emmy Award]] reprising the part in [[The Caine Mutiny Court-Martial (1955 film)|1955 TV play]] based on [[The Caine Mutiny|Wouk's tale of military justice]].<ref>{{cite web |title=Lloyd Nolan Awards |url=https://www.imdb.com/name/nm0634313/awards/?ref_=nm_awd |website=IMDB.com |publisher=Internet Movie Database}}</ref>

Starting in the 1950s, Nolan worked extensively in television while appearing in major motion pictures as a [[character actor]]. As he got older, he often played doctors, including in the Oscar-nominated movie ''[[Peyton Place (film)|Peyton Place]]'' and in ''[[Julia (1968 TV series)|Julia]]'', the first American TV series starring an African American woman in a non-subservient role. For playing Doctor Morton Chegley to [[Diahann Carroll]]'s nurse Julia Baker, Nolan was nominated for a 1969 Emmy for Outstanding Continued Performance by an Actor in a Leading Role in a Comedy Series.


His last role was in [[Woody Allen]]'s ''[[Hannah and Her Sisters]]'', which was released posthumously in 1986, the year after he died, bringing down the curtain on a career that spanned half a century. It is a measure of the respect in which he was held that his obituary in the ''[[Los Angeles Times]]'' was entitled "Lloyd Nolan, the Actor’s Actor, Dies."<ref>{{cite web |last1=Folkart |first1=Burt A. |title=Lloyd Nolan, the Actor's Actor, Dies |url=https://www.latimes.com/archives/la-xpm-1985-09-28-me-17389-story.html |website=[[Los Angeles Times]] |date=28 September 1985 |access-date=19 May 2023}}</ref>

He was a brother to the [[Delta Kappa Epsilon]] fraternity (Sigma Rho chapter).
The origin of the Commemorative Air Force dates back to 1957, when Lloyd Nolan and four friends purchased a P-51 Mustang, each sharing in the $1,500 cost of the aircraft.[2] With the purchase of the Mustang, known as Red Nose, the group was unofficially founded.


==Film career==
==Film career==
Nolan's obituary in the ''[[Los Angeles Times]]'' contained the evaluation, "Nolan was to both critics and audiences the veteran actor who works often and well regardless of his material."<ref name="lat" /> Although Nolan's acting was often praised by critics, he was, for the most part, relegated to [[B pictures]]. Despite this, Nolan co-starred with a number of well-known actresses, among them [[Mae West]], [[Dorothy McGuire]], and former [[Metropolitan Opera]] [[mezzo-soprano]] [[Gladys Swarthout]]. Under contract to [[Paramount Pictures|Paramount]] and [[20th Century Fox]] studios, he essayed starring roles in the late '30s and early-to-mid '40s and appeared as the [[Title role|title character]] in the [[Michael Shayne]] detective series. [[Raymond Chandler]]'s novel ''[[The High Window]]'' was adapted from a [[Philip Marlowe]] adventure for the seventh film in the Michael Shayne series, ''[[Time to Kill (1942 film)|Time to Kill]]'' (1942); the film was remade five years later as ''[[The Brasher Doubloon]]'', truer to Chandler's original story, with [[George Montgomery (actor)|George Montgomery]] as Marlowe.<ref>{{cite news |last=Giddins |first=Gary |date=April 3, 2007 |title=The Hard-Boiled Hero |url=https://www.nysun.com/arts/hard-boiled-hero/51722/ |work=[[The New York Sun]] |access-date=March 10, 2018}}</ref>


A number of Nolan's films were light entertainment with an emphasis on action. His most famous include: ''[[Atlantic Adventure]]''; costarring [[Nancy Carroll]]; ''[[Ebb Tide (1937 film)|Ebb Tide]]''; ''[[Wells Fargo (film)|Wells Fargo]]''; ''[[Every Day's a Holiday (1937 film)|Every Day's a Holiday]]'', starring [[Mae West]]; and ''[[Bataan (film)|Bataan]]'' starring [[Robert Taylor (American actor)|Robert Taylor]].

Nolan also contributed solid and key [[Character actor|character parts]] in numerous other films. In ''[[Johnny Apollo (film)|Johnny Apollo]]'' (1940) he was a charismatic but finally self-serving and murderous gang boss. In ''[[A Tree Grows in Brooklyn (1945 film)|A Tree Grows in Brooklyn]]'', with [[Dorothy McGuire]] and [[James Dunn (actor)|James Dunn]], he played a lonely beat policeman. In later years he gave a notable performance as a straight talking doctor who ultimately rails against small-town hypocrisy in the 1957 film ''[[Peyton Place (film)|Peyton Place]]'' with [[Lana Turner]].<ref name="lat" /> One of his films was a startling revelation to audiences in 1945. ''[[The House on 92nd Street]]'' was a conflation of several true incidents of attempted sabotage by the [[Nazi Party|Nazi regime]] (incidents which the [[Federal Bureau of Investigation|FBI]] was able to thwart during [[World War II]]). Many scenes were filmed on location in New York City, unusual at the time, and real employees of the FBI interacted with Nolan throughout the film. Nolan reprised his role as FBI Agent Briggs in the 1948 movie, ''[[The Street with No Name]]''.<ref name="lat" />

One of the last of his many military roles was playing an [[admiral]] at the start of what proved to be [[Howard Hughes|Howard Hughes']] favorite film, ''[[Ice Station Zebra (film)|Ice Station Zebra]]''.<ref>{{cite news |last=Canby |first=Vincent |author-link=Vincent Canby |date=December 21, 1968 |title=The Screen: 'Ice Station Zebra' at the Cinerama |url=https://www.nytimes.com/1968/12/21/archives/the-screen-ice-station-zebra-at-the-cinerama.html |work=The New York Times |access-date=March 10, 2018}}</ref>

Nolan portrayed FBI agent Briggs, and actual FBI employees interacted with Nolan throughout the film. He repeated the role in a subsequent movie, ''The Street with No Name''.

In 1964, Nolan spoke at the "Project Prayer" [[Demonstration (protest)|rally]] attended by 2,500 at the [[Shrine Auditorium]] in [[Los Angeles, California|Los Angeles]]. The gathering, which was hosted by [[Anthony Eisley]], a star of ABC's ''[[Hawaiian Eye]]'' series, sought to flood the [[United States Congress]] with letters in support of mandatory [[school prayer]], following two decisions in 1962 and 1963 of the [[United States Supreme Court]] which struck down mandatory school prayer as conflicting with the [[Establishment Clause]] of the [[First Amendment to the United States Constitution]].<ref>{{cite news |title=PRAYERS IN SCHOOLS?; House Group Studying 35 Amendments Is Unable To Discern Sympathies of the Public |url=https://www.nytimes.com/1964/05/17/archives/prayers-in-schools-house-group-studying-35-amendments-is-unable-to.html |work=The New York Times |date=May 17, 1964 |access-date=March 10, 2018}}</ref><ref name="pearson">{{cite web|url=http://dspace.wrlc.org/doc/bitstream/2041/50658/b18f14-0514zdisplay.pdf |title="The Washington Merry-Go-Round", Drew Pearson column, May 14, 1964 |publisher=dspace.wrlc.org |access-date=January 13, 2013 |url-status=dead |archive-url=https://web.archive.org/web/20130116232324/http://dspace.wrlc.org/doc/bitstream/2041/50658/b18f14-0514zdisplay.pdf |archive-date=January 16, 2013 }}</ref> Joining Nolan and Eisley at the rally were [[Walter Brennan]], [[Rhonda Fleming]], [[Dale Evans]], [[Pat Boone]], and [[Gloria Swanson]]. At the rally, Nolan asked, "Do we permit ourselves to be turned into a [[Godlessness|godless]] people, or do we preserve America as one nation under God?"<ref name="pearson" /> Eisley and Fleming added that [[John Wayne]], [[Ronald Reagan]], [[Roy Rogers]], [[Mary Pickford]], [[Jane Russell]], [[Ginger Rogers]], and [[Pat Buttram]] would also have attended the rally had their schedules not been in conflict.<ref name="pearson" /> "Project Prayer" was ultimately unsuccessful in its campaign to keep public prayer in public schools.

Lloyd Benedict Nolan (August 11, 1902 – September 27, 1985) was an American stage, film and television actor who rose from a supporting player and B-movie lead early in his career to featured player status after creating the role of Captain Queeg in Herman Wouk's play The Caine Mutiny Court-Martial in the mid-1950s. Nolan won a Best Actor Emmy Award reprising the part in 1955 TV play based on Wouk's tale of military justice.[1]

Starting in the 1950s, Nolan worked extensively in television while appearing in major motion pictures as a character actor. As he got older, he often played doctors, including in the Oscar-nominated movie Peyton Place and in Julia, the first American TV series starring an African American woman in a non-subservient role. For playing Doctor Morton Chegley to Diahann Carroll's nurse Julia Baker, Nolan was nominated for a 1969 Emmy for Outstanding Continued Performance by an Actor in a Leading Role in a Comedy Series.

His last role was in Woody Allen's Hannah and Her Sisters, which was released posthumously in 1986, the year after he died, bringing down the curtain on a career that spanned half a century. It is a measure of the respect in which he was held that his obituary in the Los Angeles Times was entitled "Lloyd Nolan, the Actor’s Actor, Dies."[2]

Biography

[edit]

Nolan was born in San Francisco, California, the youngest of three children of Margaret, who was of Irish descent, and James Nolan, an Irish immigrant who was a shoe manufacturer.[3][4] He attended Santa Clara Preparatory School[3] and Stanford University,[5] flunking out of Stanford as a freshman "because I never got around to attending any other class but dramatics."[6] His parents disapproved of his choice of a career in acting, preferring that he join his father's shoe business, "one of the most solvent commercial firms in San Francisco."[7]

Nolan served in the United States Merchant Marine before joining the Dennis Players theatrical troupe in Cape Cod.[7] He began his career on stage and was subsequently lured to Hollywood, where he played mainly doctors, private detectives, and policemen in many film roles.[8]

Film career

[edit]

Nolan's obituary in the Los Angeles Times contained the evaluation, "Nolan was to both critics and audiences the veteran actor who works often and well regardless of his material."[3] Although Nolan's acting was often praised by critics, he was, for the most part, relegated to B pictures. Despite this, Nolan co-starred with a number of well-known actresses, among them Mae West, Dorothy McGuire, and former Metropolitan Opera mezzo-soprano Gladys Swarthout. Under contract to Paramount and 20th Century Fox studios, he essayed starring roles in the late '30s and early-to-mid '40s and appeared as the title character in the Michael Shayne detective series. Raymond Chandler's novel The High Window was adapted from a Philip Marlowe adventure for the seventh film in the Michael Shayne series, Time to Kill (1942); the film was remade five years later as The Brasher Doubloon, truer to Chandler's original story, with George Montgomery as Marlowe.[9]

A number of Nolan's films were light entertainment with an emphasis on action. His most famous include: Atlantic Adventure; costarring Nancy Carroll; Ebb Tide; Wells Fargo; Every Day's a Holiday, starring Mae West; and Bataan starring Robert Taylor.

Nolan also contributed solid and key character parts in numerous other films. In Johnny Apollo (1940) he was a charismatic but finally self-serving and murderous gang boss. In A Tree Grows in Brooklyn, with Dorothy McGuire and James Dunn, he played a lonely beat policeman. In later years he gave a notable performance as a straight talking doctor who ultimately rails against small-town hypocrisy in the 1957 film Peyton Place with Lana Turner.[3] One of his films was a startling revelation to audiences in 1945. The House on 92nd Street was a conflation of several true incidents of attempted sabotage by the Nazi regime (incidents which the FBI was able to thwart during World War II). Many scenes were filmed on location in New York City, unusual at the time, and real employees of the FBI interacted with Nolan throughout the film. Nolan reprised his role as FBI Agent Briggs in the 1948 movie, The Street with No Name.[3]

One of the last of his many military roles was playing an admiral at the start of what proved to be Howard Hughes' favorite film, Ice Station Zebra.[10]

Television

[edit]

Later in Nolan's career, he returned to the stage and appeared on television to great acclaim in The Caine Mutiny Court-Martial, for which he received a 1955 Emmy award for portraying Captain Queeg,[3] the role made famous by Humphrey Bogart. Nolan also made guest appearances on television shows, including NBC's The Ford Show, Starring Tennessee Ernie Ford, The Bing Crosby Show, a sitcom on ABC and the Emmy-winning NBC anthology series The Barbara Stanwyck Show.

Nolan appeared on Wagon Train in the second season, episode 16, as the title character in “The Hunter Malloy Story”, January 21, 1959.

Nolan appeared three times on NBC's Laramie Western series, as sheriff Tully Hatch in the episode "The Star Trail (1959), as outlaw Matt Dyer in the episode "Deadly Is the Night" (1961) and then as former Union Army General George Barton in the episode "War Hero" (1962). On December 8, 1960, Nolan was cast as Dr. Elisha Pittman, in "Knife of Hate" on Dick Powell's Zane Grey Theatre. In the story line, Dr. Pittman removed one of the legs of Jack Hoyt (Robert Harland) after Hoyt sustained a gunshot wound from which infection was developing. Hoyt wants to marry Susan Pittman (Susan Oliver), but her father is at first unyielding on the matter.

Nolan starred in The Outer Limits episode "Soldier" written by Harlan Ellison. He appeared in the NBC Western Bonanza as LaDuke, a New Orleans detective. In 1967, Strother Martin and he guest-starred in the episode "A Mighty Hunter Before the Lord" of NBC's The Road West series, starring Barry Sullivan. Also in 1967, Nolan was a guest star in the popular Western TV series The Virginian, in the episode "The Masquerade", and in the pilot episode of Mannix.[11]

Nolan co-starred from 1968 to 1971 in the pioneering NBC series Julia, with Diahann Carroll, who was the first African American woman to star in a non-servant role in her own television series.[3]

One of his last appearances was a guest spot as himself in the 1984 episode "Cast in Steele" on the TV detective series Remington Steele.

On February 8, 1960, Nolan received a star on the Hollywood Walk of Fame for his work in the television industry, at 1752 Vine Street.[12][13]

In his later years, Nolan appeared in commercials for Polident.[14]

Personal life

[edit]

Nolan married Mell Efrid in 1933. They had a daughter Melinda who gave them two grandchildren, and a son Jay. The couple remained married until Efrid's death in 1981.[citation needed]

Their son Jay Nolan had autism and was institutionalized at a private institution at age 13. He died at age 26 from choking while eating.[15] When Lloyd Nolan went public in 1972 about his son's autism, it was revealed that Jay was one of the first children in the United States to be diagnosed with the condition.[citation needed]

In 1983, Nolan married Virginia Dabney, with whom he remained until his death.[16][17]

Political activity

[edit]

Nolan was a lifelong Republican.[17]

In 1964, Nolan spoke at the "Project Prayer" rally attended by 2,500 at the Shrine Auditorium in Los Angeles. The gathering, which was hosted by Anthony Eisley, a star of ABC's Hawaiian Eye series, sought to flood the United States Congress with letters in support of mandatory school prayer, following two decisions in 1962 and 1963 of the United States Supreme Court which struck down mandatory school prayer as conflicting with the Establishment Clause of the First Amendment to the United States Constitution.[18][19] Joining Nolan and Eisley at the rally were Walter Brennan, Rhonda Fleming, Dale Evans, Pat Boone, and Gloria Swanson. At the rally, Nolan asked, "Do we permit ourselves to be turned into a godless people, or do we preserve America as one nation under God?"[19] Eisley and Fleming added that John Wayne, Ronald Reagan, Roy Rogers, Mary Pickford, Jane Russell, Ginger Rogers, and Pat Buttram would also have attended the rally had their schedules not been in conflict.[19] "Project Prayer" was ultimately unsuccessful in its campaign to keep public prayer in public schools.

In 1973, Nolan testified to Congress urging that autism be recognized as a developmental disability. Nolan is credited with having convinced Ronald Reagan to sign California's bill mandating education be provided to children with autism.[20] Nolan founded the Jay Nolan Autistic Center (now known as Jay Nolan Community Services)[21] in honor of his son, Jay,[3] and was chairman of the annual Save Autistic Children Telethon.

Nolan appeared alongside Ronald Reagan during the 1976 New Hampshire presidential primary in which he nearly scored an upset against President Gerald Ford.[citation needed]

Death

[edit]

A long-time cigar and pipe smoker, Nolan died of lung cancer on September 27, 1985, at his home in Brentwood, California;[22] he was 83.[3] He is interred at the Westwood Village Memorial Park Cemetery in Westwood, Los Angeles, California.[23]
