Seine Biographie in englischer Sprache:
The son of world-famous violinist Efrem Zimbalist and opera
star Alma Gluck, Efrem Zimbalist Jr. received an expensive
prep-school education in New England, and at age 16 he briefly
studied at Yale University. He became a page at the NBC radio
studios in New York City, then took acting lessons at
Neighborhood Playhouse. Just before serving in World War II (in
which he earned a Purple Heart), Zimbalist married another
aspiring performer, Emily McNair. After the war, he began toting
up Broadway acting credits, and in 1949 made his film debut as
Richard Conte's brutish brother in House of Strangers (1949).
After his wife died of cancer in 1950, Zimbalist briefly retired
from acting, moving with his two children to Philadelphia; there
he became a researcher at the Curtis Institute of Music, where
his father was director. Shortly after returning to acting in
1954 with a recurring role on the TV soap opera Concerning Miss
Marlowe Zimbalist married East Coast socialite Stephanie
Spaulding; the union produced a daughter, also named Stephanie, who grew up to
become a popular actress in her own right (Zimbalist's son Efrem
III has likewise earned a place in "Who's Who" as a
publishing company executive). Signed to a long-term Warner Bros.
contract, Zimbalist achieved full stardom in the role of suave
private detective Stuart Bailey on the weekly TV-Serie 77 Sunset
Strip (1958-1964). He went on to another popular Warners series
in 1965, playing inspector Lew Erskine in the long-running (nine
seasons!) The FBI. His later TV roles included Charles Cabot in
the 1986 episodes of Hotel, Don Alejandro de la Vega in the
first-season installment of the Family Channel's Zorro (1990-92),
and silver-tongued con artist Daniel Chalmers on his daughter
Stephanie's weekly series Remington Steele
(1982-87). Generally cast in sophisticated or serious roles,
Efrem Zimbalist Jr. has on occasion been permitted to display his
flair for zany comedy, as witness his villainous portrayal in the
1990 action-flick satire Hot Shots!
