Born on February 1, 1928, in San Francisco to somewhat nomadic parents, actor Stuart Whitman spent part of his childhood in New York; his love
for acting started when he worked in summer stock in the late 1930s and early 1940s. Whitman’s parents relocated to southern California at the
beginning of the U.S. involvement in World War II, where he graduated from Hollywood High School in 1945. He spent a few years in the Army Corps
of Engineers in Washington during which he was a successful boxer. After detaching in 1948, Whitman attended Los Angeles City College and studied
law and drama while working as a bulldozer operator.
Drama won out; Whitman was spotted by a talent agent while appearing in a college play, and by the early 1950s, he began landing roles in early
television and bit parts in such films as When Worlds Collide (1951; with Barbara Rush) and All I Desire
(1953; with Barbara Stanwyck and Richard Carlson). In 1952, Whitman married first wife Pat, and the couple began
a family while he tried to build an acting career. Although initially put under contract by Universal in 1952, he wasn't cast in much more than
supporting parts until signing with 20th Century Fox in early 1958, which is when Whitman's film career took off. His first starring role came in
the 1959 film Hound-Dog Man (1959; with Fabian and Carol Lynley).
Whitman remained under contract with 20th Century Fox through the mid 1960s. Afterward, he freelanced and even formed his own production company,
the Stuart Whitman Corporation, to produce his 1967-1968 CBS TV western Cimarron Strip. In the late 1960s and early 1970s, Whitman found
quite a bit of film work in Europe in such films as The Invincible Six (1970; with Elke Sommer) and Call Him Mr.
Shatter (1974; with Peter Cushing).
