* 4.5.1903, New York, NY - † December 1984

Born to a well-known theatrical family, Adler made his debut at five in Schmendrick on the Yiddish stage. He remained basically a stage actor, but his infrequent films include some powerful, memorable character portrayals. His brother Jay (d. 1978) was also in occasional films, and his sister Stella is a well-known stage personality and acting teacher. He was the second husband (1938-47) of Sylvia Sidney.
