Charles Macaulay, actor
Fata Morgana
HEALDSBURG, Calif. (AP) -
Charles Macaulay, last seen as the often-defeated prosecutor on television's ``The Perry
Mason Mysteries,'' died Friday of metastatic cancer. He was 72.
Macaulay was a longtime actor and director in theater, TV and movies. Through his
friendship with Raymond Burr, television's Perry Mason, Macaulay became a partner six
years ago in the Raymond Burr Vineyards in Healdsburg.
Born and raised in Kentucky, Macaulay graduated from the Royal Academy of Dramatic Arts in
London, where he won the First Judges Medal.
In New York in the early 1950s, he played the title role in Terence Rattigan's ``The
Winslow Boy.'' In March 1953 he won, with Rosalind Russell, the Barter Award and later
played opposite Dame Judith Anderson in Lenore Coffee's ``Family Portrait.''
In Hollywood he appeared as a guest star in over 200 television plays and co-starred in 23
feature films.
From 1986 to 1992, he was an associate adjunct professor at the USC School of Theater in
Los Angeles.

I am late to your post of my Uncle's passing. While trying to figure out how to get his photo onto his IMDb page, I found this link.
Thank you for the nice write-up. Charles was my Father's brother.
I suppose by now, DanL9462 has found photos on google images, there are many!
Glad I stopped by, Terri
