John Houseman was a Romanian-born actor, best known for his Oscar-winning role as Professor Charles Kingsfield in the 1973 film "The Paper Chase", a role which he reprised in the television series of the same name. Houseman was also a producer. For example, he co-produced Orson Welles's infamous 1938 radio broadcast "The War of the Worlds". When the US entered the Second World War, Houseman quit his job and became the head of the overseas radio division of the Office of War Information (OWI), working for the "Voice of America" whilst also managing its operations in New York City.
