Timeline
David Brian was born Brian James Davis on August 5, 1914 in New York City. After graduating from City College, he found work as a doorman before entering show business with a song-and-dance routine in vaudeville and nightclubs. He did a wartime stint with the United States Coast Guard and returned to acting on the New York stage after World War II.
Persuaded by Joan Crawford to try his hand at film acting, he joined her in Hollywood and, in 1949, signed a contract with Warner Brothers.
In his feature debut, Flamingo Road (1949), he played a political boss infatuated with Crawford's carnival girl.
His most critically acclaimed performance was as the fair-minded, resourceful Southern lawyer defending condemned but innocent Juano Hernandez from a lynch mob in Intruder in the Dust (1949). For this role, he was nominated for a Golden Globe Award as Best Supporting Actor.
Brian portrayed a powerful gang leader in The Damned Don't Cry (1950), again opposite Crawford. In spite of his commanding presence in the film, his performance was somewhat compromised by a cliche-laden screenplay.
In This Woman Is Dangerous (1952), it was Crawford who played the criminal and Brian the role of her insanely jealous paramour.
Somewhat against character, he essayed a weakling in the ground-breaking airborne drama The High and the Mighty (1954). On the right side of the law, he starred as crusading District Attorney Paul Garrett in Mr.
District Attorney (1954), reprising his earlier role on radio.
For the remainder of the decade and into the 1960s, Brian played an assortment of western heavies on the big screen -- notably raider leader Austin McCool in Springfield Rifle (1952) and saloon owner Dick Braden in Dawn at Socorro (1954) -- and did the same with equal verve on television, in Gunsmoke (1955). An incisive actor with sardonic looks and a hard edge to his voice, he was often typecast as ruthless or manipulating types.
In 1968, he also made a contribution to Star Trek: The Original Series (1966) as John Gill, a Federation cultural observer on the planet Ekos whose experiment in creating a government based on National Socialist principles goes disastrously wrong. In private life, he was a celebrated fundraiser for the Volunteers of America, a non-profit charitable organization.
