The Superb Actor, Nehemiah Persoff Is 100 Years Old

In the great film, “On The Waterfront,” Nehemiah Persoff has an uncredited role as a cab driver. It is one of his first roles and he had over four hundred in a distinguished career.

On August 2nd, Mr. Persoff turned 100 years old.

He played ” Little Bonaparte” in Billy Wilder’s classic, “Some Like It Hot” and entertained us so many times in myriad television roles. His performance in the “Twilight Zone” episode “Judgment Night” is truly memorable.

Happy birthday Mr. Persoff.
