John Abbott
Under the pseudonym John Abbott, he began his career in his native country, in theatre (among others in plays by William Shakespeare) and in film. After eight first British films from 1936 to 1940, the war took him to the United States, where he settled permanently.
His first American film (in a small uncredited role) was Josef von Sternberg's Shanghai Gesture (1941, starring Ona Munson, Victor Mature and Gene Tierney). The last of his sixty-seven American films was Quest, a short film by Elaine and Saul Bass, released in 1984.
In the meantime, he contributed (as a supporting role) to Robert Stevenson's Jane Eyre (1944, with Joan Fontaine and Orson Welles), Vincente Minnelli's Madame Bovary (1949, with Jennifer Jones, Van Heflin and Louis Jourdan), The Merry Widow of Curtis Bernhardt (1952, with Lana Turner and Fernando Lamas), or Gigi by Vincente Minnelli (1958, with Leslie Caron, Maurice Chevalier and Louis Jourdan). He is also the original voice of the wolf Akela in the Disney Studios animated film The Jungle Book by Wolfgang Reitherman (1967).
John Abbott also appeared in three plays on Broadway in 1946, 1949 and 1957 (the latter was an adaptation of Jean Anouilh's Waltz of the Bullfighters, alongside Mildred Natwick and Ralph Richardson).
Finally, for television, from 1937 to 1978, he contributed to seven television films (the first three, from the british theatre) and to seventy American series, including Perry Mason (two episodes, 1962-1965), Star Trek (one episode, 1967) and The Mysteries of the West ( one episode, 1967).
