Tristan Adams

As Tristan Adams

James Gregory was born on December 23, 1911 in The Bronx, NY. By 1935, he had turned an acting hobby into a career, and with 1939's Key Largo, he moved to Broadway, where he would act in numerous productions for the next sixteen years. Around 1955, he moved from stage to television and film, ultimately appearing in four regular television series roles, about fifty movies (including a role as General Ursus in Beneath the Planet of the Apes), and well over a hundred television guest appearances, including his 1966 role as Tristan Adams in TOS: "Dagger of the Mind. One of his television series roles, irascible Inspector Luger on the ABC TV comedy Barney Miller, became a defining role. He retired from acting around 1987 and died of natural causes on September 16, 2002 in Sedona, AZ, a few months shy of his ninety-first birthday. His widow, Anne, died on December 29th, 2005.
