Harry Landers (born Harry Sorokin; September 3, 1921 – September 10, 2017)[1][2] was an American character actor. He was born in New York City.

Early life and career

Landers was born on September 3, 1921, in New York City, to parents Jacob and Rose (née Landers) Sorokin, Jewish immigrants from Russia. He was the third-oldest out of seven children. Jacob abandoned the family early on in Harry's life.{{Citation needed |date=February 2019}} Landers' education came at Public School No. 202 and Thomas Jefferson High School in Brooklyn.[3]

During World War II, Landers served in the United States Merchant Marine.[3]

In the mid-1940s, he began his career as a worker at the Warner Bros. studio in California. An encounter with actress Bette Davis led to a membership of Screen Actors Guild and an acting career.[3] He started out as an extra and was largely uncredited. He studied at the Actors' Laboratory Theatre, known for its left-wing political affiliation.{{Citation needed|date=July 2018}}

On Broadway, Landers appeared in A Flag is Born (1948) and Billy Budd. He gained additional theatrical experience in summer stock theatre.[4]

Landers is known for being the spokesman for Taster's Choice coffee in television commercials that aired in the 1970s. He played "Go Go" in the 1953 classic, The Wild One. He had a regular role as Dr. Ted Hoffman on the television series Ben Casey[5] and co-starred in the TV movie The Return of Ben Casey (1988).[6] He had a small role in the Alfred Hitchcock film Rear Window (1954) and a supporting role as Dr. Arthur Coleman in the final episode of the original Star Trek television series, "Turnabout Intruder", first screened in 1969. He played multiple roles in Cecil B. DeMille's epic The Ten Commandments (1956).
