MikeDunnAuthorToday in Labor History April 14, 1925: Rod Steiger, one of America’s greatest actors, was born on this day. He co-starred in On the Waterfront, as Brando’s older brother, Charlie. He won an academy award as the police chief, opposite Sidney Poitier, in the film In the Heat of the Night. And he played a Mexican bandit and unwitting revolutionary in Sergio Leone’s, Fist Full of Dynamite. He was an outspoken critic of the House Unamerican Activities Committee Communist witch hunt and the purge of left leaning actors and writers in Hollywood. He was critical of Charlton Heston’s stance on weapons.
