One
of Victor Garber's most notable film roles to date is his charismatic
performance as the architect of the ill-fated ship in "Titanic,"
starring Leonardo DiCaprio and Kate Winslet. Also on the big screen
he performed opposite Goldie Hawn in "The First Wives Club" and
Tom Hanks in "Sleepless in Seattle."
Garber's numerous television credits include: Richard Benjamin's
"Laughter on the 23rd Floor"; the ABC miniseries "Life with Judy
Garland: Me and My Shadows"; the role of Daddy Warbucks in ABC's
musical version of "Annie," with Kathy Bates, Alan Cumming and Alicia
Morton; "Invisible Child," opposite Rita Wilson; "External Affairs";
and the role of Inspector Philip Millard in the Criminal Instinct
Mysteries "Love And Murder," "Deadly Appearance," "The Wandering
Soul Murders" and "A Colder Kind Of Death," based on the novels
by Gail Bowen. He also performed in ABC's "The Wonderful World of
Disney" film "Rodgers and Hammerstein's Cinderella," and "Let Me
Call You Sweetheart," opposite Meredith Baxter. Garber received
Gemini nominations for his performances in the miniseries "Dieppe"
and the TV movie "First Circle."
His episodic work includes guest-starring roles on the popular series
"The Outer Limits" and "Law & Order," and a recurring role on the
long running series "E.N.G."
Garber was recently nominated for Emmy Awards for Outstanding Supporting
Actor in a Miniseries or a Movie for his role in the ABC miniseries,
"Life with Judy Garland: Me and My Shadows," and Outstanding Guest
Actor in a Comedy Series for "Frasier."
Garber's stage performances are legendary. He has earned four Tony
nominations for his work on "Damn Yankees," "Lend Me A Tenor," "Deathtrap"
and "Little Me." Most recently he performed in the workshop of Sondheim's
"Wiseguys," with Nathan Lane, which was directed by Sam Mendes,
and with Alan Alda and Alfred Molina in the Tony Award-winning "Art,"
which moved to Los Angeles following its successful six-month run
at Broadway's Royale Theatre. His numerous stage credits also include
"Arcadia," "The Devil's Disciple," "Noises Off" and "Sweeney Todd."
Garber began acting at the age of 10 in children's productions at
the Grand Theatre in his hometown of London, Ontario, Canada. At
16 he moved to Toronto, where he joined the singing group The Sugar
Shoppe which were featured on the Ed Sullivan and Johnny Carson
shows. One of his first film roles was for director George Bloomfield
in CBC's "Paradise Lost." Soon after, he landed the role of the
