American actor, director and producer Norman Nathan Lloyd died May 10 at age 106.

He appeared on Broadway as Japhet in André Obey’s biblical play “Noah” in 1935, and later as Cinna the Poet in Orson Welles’ 1937 staging of “Julius Caesar.” When Alfred Hitchcock was looking for an actor to play the title role in his 1942 film “Saboteur,” Lloyd’s performance made him a memorable baddie.

Hitchcock would remain a professional friend, eventually employing Lloyd as producer and director for his TV suspense programs, and casting him in “Spellbound,” “A Walk in the Sun,” and “Arch of Triumph.” Later, film audiences applauded Lloyd in “Dead Poets Society” and TV audiences enjoyed his performance of Dr. Daniel Auschlander in the 1980s medical drama “St. Elsewhere.” As producer, Norman Lloyd brought culture to TV with presentations of Arthur Miller’s “Incident at Vichy,” Bruce Jay Friedman’s “Steambath,” Clifford Odets’ “Awake and Sing,” and Lillian Hellman’s Another Part of the Forest,” among others.
