biography

Character player, often of suave, insidious types, who entered film in 1951 and received attention for his role in Sidney's Lumet's "Twelve Angry Men" (1957). A prolific actor, Webber had performed over 400 TV roles by the early 1960s alone. Webber appeared primarily in action films and intrigues, though he ended his career in several succesful farces ("10" 1979, "Private Benjamin" 1980, "S.O.B." 1981).
