Robert Osterloh
Robert Osterloh (May 31, 1918 – April 16, 2001) was an American actor.
Robert Osterloh was born in Pittsburgh, Pennsylvania, USA. It was director Rudolph Maté who, in 1948, gave Osterloh his first opportunity in film, introducing him in The Dark Past, in which he had a supporting role. Osterloh continued his career for 20 years, mainly in the 1950s, playing roles in films such as Illegal Entry (1949), White Heat (1949) (as a gangster killed by gang boss James Cagney), One Minute to Zero (1952), Star in the Dust (1956) and I Bury the Living (1958). In the 1960s, however, he appeared in only a few films such as Young Dillinger (1965) and his last film, Coogan's Bluff (1968). During this time he also played roles in several TV series such as Bonanza (in several episodes of 1959), and The Untouchables in a 1961 episode. After 1968 Osterloh left his work as an actor. He died at 82 years Old in Los Osos, California, USA.[1]
