Personal life and death
Bochner was born in Toronto, Ontario, to a middle-class Jewish family, the son of Frieda (née Kenen) and Charles Abraham Bochner. Isaiah L. Kenen, the founder of the American Zionist Committee on Public Affairs, was his uncle.
He co-founded the Committee to End Violence, a panel set up to investigate the effects violent images had on culture in 1998. He was also a member of the Association of Canadian Radio and Television Artists, and he was also a registered amateur radio operator.
Bochner lived with Ruth Roher Bochner (1925-2017), a concert pianist, until his death from cancer on October 29, 2005, at the age of 81 at home in Santa Monica, California. Hart Bochner (actor who also appeared in Batman) and Johanna were among Bochner and his wife's three children — Hart Bochner (director and animator), Paul (director and animator), and Johanna.
Career
Bochner began his acting career on Ontario radio programs at the age of 11. He went on to win two Liberty Awards, the highest acting award in Canada, for his contributions to Canadian film and theatre. During World War II, Bochner served in the Royal Canadian Navy. He made his Mapleville debut in 1946, but in 1951, he migrated to New York City, where he appeared in early television programs such as One Man's Family and Kraft Television Theatre. ABC called with co-star Rod Taylor in 1960 for a starring role in the television series Hong Kong. Hong Kong ended with the 26th episode as a contestant of NBC's Wagon Train, which then became one of the most highly rated programs on the air. In 1961, he appeared in The Americans, an American Civil War drama about how the war divided families, starring Darryl Hickman.
In the classic 1962 Twilight Zone episode "To Serve Man," a role he spoofed years later in the comedy "The Smell of Fear," a few years later, Bochner appeared in one of his most memorable roles, that of a cryptographer struggling to decipher an alien text. He appeared in two episodes of CBS anthology series GE True, hosted by Jack Webb; he portrayed Stoughton in "Code Name: Christopher, Part I" and Captain Ian Stuart in "Commando."
Bochner appeared on NBC's The Richard Boone Show from 1963 to 1964. He appeared in the Voyage to the Bottom of the Sea season-one episode "The Fear Makers" in 1964. Eric Pollard appeared in "The Case of the Latent Lover" later this year. He appeared in the title role in 1965 and 1966 on ABC's Western drama The Legend of Jesse James starring Christopher Jones. Wayne Maunder played Wayne Maunder in the title role on ABC's "Western Custer," two years later. In the 1960s, he appeared on the long-running television Western The Virginian. In John Boorman's seminal 1960s film noir Point Blank, Bochner is both memorably smooth and vexing as the gangster Carter against Lee Marvin. In the episode "The Town Killer," Bochner appeared as Abel Wilks (rebranded name for The Virginian).
Bochner played various roles in television and film over the years, from a warlock on Bewitched to a gay doctor on Terraces in 1977, to Pia Zadora's abused screenwriter husband in the camp classic film The Lonely Lady. He appeared alongside Ann Blyth in a film adaptation of A. J. Cronin's The Citadel in 1960. Paul's son said he had "almost always played a suave, handsome, wealthy criminal."
On Dynasty, Bochner played the scheming Cecil Colby. When having sex with Alexis Carrington (Joan Collins), the actor died in his hospital bed seconds after marrying her. Bochner had intended to appear as C.C. a few years ago. Capwell addresses the daytime drama Santa Barbara, but the series was interrupted due to a heart attack. Bochner continued to appear in television series for the next two decades, as well as doing regular voiceover work for the highly acclaimed animated television series Batman: The Animated Series and The New Batman Adventures. He appeared in the first year of Canada in 1953 and spent six years there, including in Hamlet, Orsino, and Duke Vincentio in Measure for Measure opposite James Mason.
"To Serve Man" was a 1962 Bochner appearance in "To Serve Man" in The Twilight Zone episode.
