He was born in Fitchburg, Massachusetts, on February 1, 1916. He was a stage, movie and television actor during a career spanning five decades, making his first professional appearance on Broadway in Arsenic and Old Lace with Boris Karloff.

Mr. Gordon performed in over 400 live major network television productions as well as numerous television movies. His starring roles in television series included four years with The Untouchables, in which he played the infamous Frank Nitti.

In later years, he chose to live in Santa Fe, and came out of retirement to appear in two stage productions at the College of Santa Fe.

Mr. Gordon was one of my favorite actors, on both the large and the small screen. Most importantly, Mr. Gordan possessed a stage presence rarely equalled and rarely surpassed, even by today's so called "tough" guys. He will be missed by all of us who enjoyed his wit, humor, and his low key but powerful banter.

I will alway remember his Frank Nitti as well as his Gus Chernak on "Peyton Pace" and the comedic turn that he and Robert Stack gave their iconic roles on "The Lucy Show."

My deepest condolences.

This man scared the pants off me during episodes of the Untouchables! A great actor in every appearance I ever saw him in later, as well. A legendary actor. He will remain "untouchable" in stardom and in the hearts of everyone lucky enough to see him perform.
