Шаблон:Short description Шаблон:Use American English Шаблон:Use mdy dates Шаблон:Infobox person Clinton Charles Sundberg (December 7, 1903 [some sources say 1906] – December 14, 1981) was an American character actor in film and on stage.

Early years

Sundberg was born in Appleton, Minnesota. He graduated from Hamline University in St. Paul, Minnesota, where he was active in drama, president of his fraternity, and captain of the tennis team.

Career

Sundberg left teaching English literature for acting, appearing in plays in stock theater in New England. He appeared in a number of Broadway plays, debuting in Nine Pine Street (1933). His most notable roles were Mr. Kraler in the original 1957 production of The Diary of Anne Frank and Mortimer Brewster (as a replacement) in the 1944 Arsenic and Old Lace.

He became a contract player at Metro-Goldwyn-Mayer where he appeared in numerous supporting roles in films of the late 1940s and early 1950s. He played Mike, the bartender who listens to Judy Garland's character's troubles in Easter Parade. In the 1949 film In the Good Old Summertime, which also starred Garland and Van Johnson, he played a friendly co-worker and confidant of Johnson's character. He also played the hotel owner who hires Annie Oakley to enter the shooting contest against Frank Butler in Annie Get Your Gun.

In 1957, Sundberg appeared in a TV episode of Have Gun - Will Travel, "The Englishman". In 1962, Sundberg was cast in the lead guest-starring role of Luther Boardman, a naive but troublesome newspaper publisher who comes to Laramie, Wyoming, to capture the story of "real West" gunfighters in "The Man Behind the News", one of the last episodes of the western series Lawman. Other television appearances include two episodes of Perry Mason: "The Case of the Drowsy Mosquito" in 1963 and "The Case of the Scarlet Scandal" in 1966. He was also in several television commercials.
