Biography


Coming from a family of Jewish emigrants settled in Chicago which had a great influence on the theatrical activity of the city, Bob Balaban was immersed at a very young age in the entertainment industry. His uncle was the president of Paramount Pictures and his grandfather was the head of MGM productions for several years.

After studying drama in New York, he played in several theatrical productions for two years then played small roles in the cinema, notably in Catch 22 (1970) by Mike Nichols before being noticed in the fantastic film Rencontres du 3ème type (1977) by Steven Spielberg. While remaining in the register of science fiction, he collaborates with Ken Russell in Beyond the Real (1980) and with Peter Hyams in 2010 (1984).

An eclectic actor, he multiplies genres as comfortable in detective films like The Prince of New York by Sidney Lumet as in the dramatic comedies of Woody Allen with whom he collaborates twice with Alice and Harry in all its forms. Director Christopher Guest allows him to exploit his comedic potential through three comedies Waiting for Guffman (1996), Bêtes de scene (2000), A mighty wind (2002). He went behind the camera in 1989 for his first production Parents, a fantastic comedy then repeated his experience in 1993 with My Boyfriend's Back, in 1994 with The Last Good Time without being confined to a particular genre.

Also present on the small screen, he recurses roles in television series including Two cops in Miami, Friends and Seinfeld. He broadened his skills by directing several episodes of series such as Oz or Temps Mort and Temps Mort or The 13th Dimension.

In 2002, he is both the screenwriter, the producer and one of the performers of Robert Altman's Gosford Park, a film nominated 7 times at the Oscars. He then joined Philip Seymour Hoffman in Bennett Miller's Truman Capote (2005), the biography of the famous writer. He continues to wear double hats by directing several television films, including Bernard and Doris in 2006, which he also produces, but invests himself more deeply in his roles. He is filming for the first time with Night Shyamalan, who takes him out of his usual characters, in The Water Girl (2006).

His activity intensified in the early 2010s with several roles for TV series like The Good Wife. He finds Bill Murray on the set of Moonrise Kingdom by Wes Anderson, where his voice as a narrator is greatly appreciated and still turns with the American actor in Monuments Men by George Clooney, his role there is much more consistent since he is the one of the seven improvised soldiers in the film.
