Born on October 8, 1930, in Evanston, Illinois, tall (6'3"), reedy, sensitively-looking blond James Olson was the son of LeRoy Olson, an engineer. He made his stage debut at age 12 as "Hans Brinker" in the Evanston Children's Theatre production of "Hans Brinker and the Silver Skates. " He received a BS degree in Speech from Northwestern University before serving in the U. S.
Army as a military policeman in 1952 for a two-year stint. A Chicago-based stage actor before moving to New York, James studied with Lee Strasberg and made his Broadway debut in "The Young and Beautiful. " Throughout the late 50's and 60's he continued to find poignant Broadway roles in "J. B.
Making a strong TV debut playing baseball legend Mickey Mantle on a 1956 "Kraft Theatre" production, James' film career began with the forgettable action drama The Sharkfighters (1956), and appeared in better roles in the film noir drama The Strange One (1957) and the Chekhov classic The Three Sisters (1966) (as Baron Tuzbach, his Broadway stage role).
" (1958), "Romulus" (1962), "The Chinese Prime Minister" (1964), "The Three Sisters" (1964) and "Of Love Remembered" (1967).

Better yet, he showed an understated power in his performance as Joanne Woodward's suitor in the Oscar-nominated picture Rachel, Rachel (1968), which gained him the best reviews of his cinematic career.
This was followed by a prime scientist role in the classic sci-fi thriller The Andromeda Strain (1971). It appeared James had finally earned his stripes with these critically-applauded movie roles, but his taciturn personality kept audiences at bay. He continued on impressively with stage roles in "The Glass Menagerie," "The Crucible," "A Safe Place," "Twelve Dreams" and "Winterplay.
" Despite numerous TV-movie roles in Paper Man (1971), Incident on a Dark Street (1973), A Tree Grows in Brooklyn (1974), The Sex Symbol (1974), The Missiles of October (1974), The Family Nobody Wanted (1975), Someone I Touched (1975), Strange New World (1975), Law and Order (1976) and The Spell (1977), and regular dramatic guest appearances on such popular TV series as "Medical Center," "The Bold Ones," "Gunsmoke," "Bonanza," "Police Story," "The F.
