George Segal is a noted American actor, who has been regaling his audiences with his powerful performances since the 1960s, having around sixty-five films and numerous television movies and series to his credit. Also an accomplished musician with three albums to his credit, he began his career on stage, later moving to the big screen with a meaty role in ‘The Young Doctors’.

However, in the 1980s, he suffered a setback, getting fewer roles in movies. He then returned to the television and stage. He made a comeback to the movies in the 1990s, reclaiming his reputation as a good actor with films like ‘For the Boys’ and ‘Flirting with Disaster’. In spite of his advanced age, he continues to be active, working as a series regular in the popular period sitcom, 'The Goldbergs' as of 2019.
