Dan Tobin (October 19, 1910 – November 26, 1982) was an American supporting actor on the stage, in films and on television. He generally played gentle, urbane, rather fussy, sometimes obsequious and shifty characters, often with a concealed edge of malice. Tobin's most memorable roles were as the overbearing male secretary, Gerald, in ''Woman of the Year'' (1942), and the top-billed scientist in Orson Welles's innovative Peabody Award-winning unsold television pilot, ''The Fountain of Youth'', filmed in 1956 and televised once two years later as an installment of NBC's ''Colgate Theatre''. Tobin also played as Alexander "Sandy" Lord in the original Broadway production of Phillip Barry's ''The Philadelphia Story'', thus starting his career on stage in 1939. The Internet Movie Database lists 96 television and film acting roles for Tobin over a career spanning from 1939 to 1977. He became a regular during the final season of ''Perry Mason'' as the proprietor of "Clay's Grill". He made a prior appearance in 1964 as Dickens the butler in "The Case of the Scandalous Sculptor." He was married to film and television screenwriter Jean Holloway (born Gratia Jean Casey - August 16, 1917 - November 11, 1989) from 1951 to his death in 1982. ==Partial filmography== * ''The Bachelor and the Bobby-Soxer'' (1947) * ''How to Succeed in Business Without Really Trying'' (1967) * ''The Ghost and Mrs. Muir'' (1970) 抄文引用元・出典: フリー百科事典『 ウィキペディア（Wikipedia）』 ■ウィキペディアで「Dan Tobin」の詳細全文を読む スポンサード リンク
