George Tobias

“I worked in New York in the car shops, in foundries, on boats, in factories, in fact, just about everyplace, because I wanted to be an actor. I knew I wasn’t good looking enough to be a leading man, so I worked around with people of every nationality to pick up their accents and mannerisms. I remembered every one. My folks thought I was crazy, doing that hard work just to be an actor.”
