Life / Career

Born and raised in The Bronx, New York, Zuckert began his career in 1941 in radio and lent his voice to hundreds of dramas over the next two decades.[1]

He served in World War II as a member of the naval construction force known as the Seabees.[1]

On old-time radio, Zuckert portrayed Lieutenant Louis Parker in the NBC crime drama Crime and Peter Chambers.[2] He went on to star in television, having many guest and character roles over the next half century, such as playing the sheriff in the Star Trek episode, "Spectre of the Gun". He appeared in two episodes of the short-lived 1961 James Franciscus series The Investigators[citation needed] and also made four appearances on TV's Perry Mason as Judge Edward Simpson.[citation needed]

In 1963, he appeared on Gunsmoke as “Enoch” in the episode “I Call Him Wonder” (S8E28), then again in 1965 as “Mr. Jacobson” in the episode “Deputy Festus” (S10E17).

In 1969 Zuckert appeared as Yaekima on the TV series The Virginian in the episode titled "A Woman of Stone".[citation needed]

Zuckert's Broadway credits include The Gang's All Here (1959) and Sixth Finger in a Five Finger Glove (1956).[3]

Zuckert served on the boards of directors of two professional organizations: the Screen Actors Guild and the American Federation of Television and Radio Artists.[4]

For 30 years Zuckert was married to actress Gladys Holland, who survived him. They had a daughter, and he had two children from a previous marriage.[4]
