A character actor who won the Tony Award for Best Featured Actor playing Herr Schultz in the 1998 revival of Cabaret, then reached his widest audience as the scheming spymaster Arvin Sloane on the series Alias. He also had a recurring role as Saul Holden on Brothers & Sisters and appeared as a district attorney in L.A. Confidential, building a decades-long career on stage and screen out of morally ambiguous, precisely drawn men.
