Joseph Turkel (July 15, 1927 – June 27, 2022) was an American character actor who starred in film and television during the Golden Age of Hollywood in the 1950s and 1960s. He is best known for his roles in Stanley Kubrick's films The Killing (1956), Paths of Glory (1957), and The Shining (1980), and as Dr. Eldon Tyrell in Blade Runner (1982). He also had roles in three of Bert I. Gordon's films.
Early life
Turkel was born in Brooklyn on July 15, 1927, to Benjamin Turkel (1899–1988), who was a tailor, and Gazella (née Goldfisher; 1899–1997), a homemaker and occasional opera singer.[1] His parents were Polish Jewish immigrants.[2][3][4] He had two brothers, Harold and David.[5] Turkel joined the United States Army when he was seventeen and served in the European Theater of Operations during World War II.[6]
Career
Turkel's first film appearance was 1948's City Across the River.[7][6] His other film appearances include Bert I. Gordon's The Boy and the Pirates as Abu the Genie, Tormented as Nick (both 1960), and Village of the Giants (1965) as the sheriff;[7] as a gangster-sidekick in The Purple Gang (1959);[8] a prisoner of war named "Dino" in the 1965 POW movie King Rat;[7] The Sand Pebbles (1966) as Bronson; The St. Valentine's Day Massacre (1967) as Chicago gangster Jake "Greasy Thumb" Guzik;[8] and the 1990 horror feature The Dark Side of the Moon.[7]
