Kurt Kasznar is a working actor recognizable to viewers well beyond any single title. The bulk of the career has been spent in comedy. The distance between the first credit and the most recent is about 102 years. The film 'Casino Royale' accounts for more of the public profile than anything else does. '55 Days at Peking' is another title that gets mentioned. The early stretch of the career is the part least seen today.
