John Cullum Actor

John made his Broadway debut as Sir Dinadan in Alan Jay Lerner’s and Frederick Loewe’s Camelot in 1960. He also understudied Richard Burton and Roddy McDowall, going on four times when Burton became ill and succeeding McDowall.

John would go on to play Laertes opposite Burton’s 1964 Broadway performance as Hamlet and in Burton’s final Broadway appearance in Noël Coward’s Private Lives in 1983.

In 1965, John was called in to substitute Louis Jourdan during the Boston tryout of the musical On a Clear Day You Can See Forever. It was his first starring role on Broadway, netting him a Theatre World Award and his first Tony Award nomination.

The original cast album received a Grammy Award. John represented Edward Rutledge of South Carolina in the Broadway musical 1776, providing a dramatic highlight with his performance of “Molasses to Rum,” a tirade against the hypocrisy of some Northerners over the slave trade.

John had been the third Rutledge on Broadway, but played the role the longest and repeated it for the 1972 film. He is famously known for premiering the role of Charlie Anderson in the musical Shenandoah, which began at Goodspeed Opera House, Connecticut in 1974.

John won the Tony, Drama Desk, and Outer Critics Circle Awards when the show was produced on Broadway in 1975. He also played the role at Wolf Trap, Virginia, in June 1976, opened the national tour for 3 weeks in Fall 1977 in Chicago, and starred in the limited-run Broadway revival in 1989.

John followed Shenandoah by playing the maniacal Broadway producer Oscar Jaffee in the 1978 musical On the Twentieth Century, opposite Madeline Kahn and later Judy Kaye, earning his second Tony Award.

John received his fourth Tony nomination in 2002 for originating the role of evil moneygrubber corporate president Caldwell B. Cladwell in Urinetown The Musical. He earned his fifth Tony nomination in the 2007 revival of 110 in the Shade, playing H.C. Curry, father to Audra McDonald’s Lizzie.

In 2003, John co-starred with Northern Exposure castmate Barry Corbin in ‘Blackwater Elegy’, an award-winning short film written by Matthew Porter and co-directed by Porter and Joe O’Brien

Recent Broadway features include the title role of William Shakespeare’s seldom-performed Cymbeline, at Lincoln Center in 2007 and August: Osage County, by Tracy Letts for the week of September 16, 2008, and then since November 11, 2008.

In addition to enjoying a long stage profession, he is best known to television audiences for his regular role as Holling Vincoeur on the quirky CBS series Northern Exposure, his extended features on the NBC medical drama ER as Mark Greene’s father, and on Law & Order: Special Victims Unit as a constitutional lawyer and later judge, Barry Moredock.

John has also featured as Lucky Strike executive Lee Garner, Sr. on AMC’s Mad Men. John Cullum appeared as Leap Day William, the embodiment of the fictional Leap Day national holiday, in the “Leap Day” episode of the sixth season of NBC’s 30 Rock.

In 2015 John featured and sang in the satirical B&W period movie-musical footage of Daddy’s Boy on Unbreakable Kimmy Schmidt.

John Roland Deschain and Eddie Dean in the general store in Stoneham in 1977. He helped Roland and Eddie in the shoot-out with Jack Andolini. After they escaped the store, Cullum took them back to his house where he told them of Stephen King, Turtleback Lane, and the “walk-ins”.

He lends them his old Ford Galaxie and is told to head to Vermont. Cullum eventually came back into the story, as he failed to leave for Vermont like he was told. He was called by Eddie when he and Roland needed help establishing the Tet Corporation.

John was given Aunt Talitha’s Cross to use as a signal to convince Moses Carver to join up. Cullum was shot in 1989, presumably by a member of the Sombra Corporation or North Central Positronics. He survived long enough to see the other members of the Ka-Tet of the Rose one more time and to pass the cross onto Carver.
