Jack Gilford, 81, M ovie Actor New York (JTA) — Stage and screen actor Jack Gilford, who delighted audiences for five decades with his un- mistakable Jewish charac- ters, died last week. He was 81. Gilford, born Jacob Gellman, was raised on the lower east side of Manhattan and in Brooklyn, which helped lend his often played Jewish characters an un- mistakable Yiddish flair. Gilford was nominated for two Tony awards for his Broadway performances in A Funny Thing Happened On the Way to The Forum and Cabaret. Other stage roles included Diary of Anne Frank, Romanoff and Juliet, and The World of Sholom Aleichem. Gilford suffered from the anti-Communist blacklists after World War II and did not appear in films or plays for a decade. He came back strong after- ward, however, adding televi- sion appearances and a stint as the Crackerjack spokesman and stage credits. Gilford's most recent heralded screen performance was in the 1985 film Cocoon, where he played a nursing home resident suddenly filled with youthful vigor by alien beings. He also recently played a kindly rabbi on the television series "thirtysomething," in an episode in which one of the characters was wrestling with his Jewish identity.
