He has been nominated for 15 Golden Globe Awards, with 6 wins, and has won an Emmy Award for his work in the 1985 Television movie “Death of a Salesman”. His film career started in 1967 with his role in the classic film “The Graduate”.

The signed photo from “The Graduate” is one that I printed out and mailed to his production company for him to sign.
