character actor who appeared in movies and on television.Lambert was
born in El Paso, Texas, and grew up in Kansas City, Missouri. During
World War II he was a lieutenant in the Army Air Forces.He trained at
the Actors' Lab in Los Angeles and then moved to New York City, where
he first worked Off Broadway, subsequently appearing with Rod Steiger
on Broadway in a revival of Clifford Odets's Night Music (a credit
that is often misrepresented as A Little Night Music because of the
similarity of the titles and the fact that the Sondheim musical
featured an actor named Mark Lambert).Lambert's husky dark looks
suited his frequent screen portrayals of gangsters and other heavies.
In addition, he often appeared as authority figures such as
executives, judges, and police officers.
