Roy Poole

Biography

A graduate of Stanford University, professorial-looking American general purpose actor Roy Poole was busy in movies and TV from at least 1962 through the early '80s. Poole's films included Experiment in Terror (1962) and Up the Down Staircase (1971). His extensive stage credits encompassed such plays as The Bad Seed, Long Day's Journey into Night, 27 Wagons Full of Cotton and 1776. On TV, Poole was cast as a regular on three different series: The Andros Targets (1977) as Chet Reynolds, managing editor to newsman Mike Andros ( James Sutorius); For Richer, For Poorer (1978) as Ira Ferguson; and the ABC daytime serial Ryan's Hope, as Neal Greer MacCurtain. And like most workaday actors, Roy Poole appeared in the occasional never-sold TV pilot, including Land of Hope (1976) and Hellinger's Law (1981). - Hal Erickson, Rovi
