Trained in the Classics at CCC in Chicago, Ron has proven himself
equally at home on stage or screen, with Shakespeare or slapstick.
Professionally, he has played everything from Stanley in Streetcar
Named Desire to Sakini in Teahouse of the August Moon;
from Will Stockdale in No Time For Sergeants to Marc Antony
in Julius Caesar. More proof of his versatility was seen
in Mr. Roberts, where in one production he played Ensign
Pulver and in another production, Mr. Roberts himself. He was resident
leading man at the Candlelight Theatre in Chicago for three and a
half years, where he never missed a performance. His knack at doing
impressions won him a trip around the world as a member of the All
Army show. Again, in over 700 shows, he never missed a performance.
He was the only military policeman ever to do the show. It was while
doing theatre and commercials in Chicago that he was brought to the
attention of producer Harry Ackerman and was brought to California
to test for the lead in a pilot. While in California, Ron met John
Sturges and was cast in Ice Station Zebra. His filmography
is a testament to his range and skill as an actor. Equally at home
on the concert tour, he has emceed hundreds of shows for the top names
in the variety field. He is also a popular talk and game show guest.
It was while doing research for his movie role as Mark Twain in
Mark Twain's Greatest Adventure: It's a Matter of Time that he
wrote his one man show At Home with Mark Twain. An outstanding
athlete, he has his own uniform and worked out with the L.A. Dodgers
for over 20 years. He is often introduced as “one of America’s
most familiar faces,” but since his eight year run as Sheriff
Mort Metzger on Murder, She Wrote, we can safely say that
he is “one of the world’s most familiar faces.”
