Hopkins in Wood Green, London, England) was an Emmy-nominated English actor
with almost 90 TV shows and movies to his credit between 1930 and 1974.
Hawkins began acting as a child and made his first movie appearance in Birds
of Prey (1930). He specialized in playing military officers in such films as
The Cruel Sea (1953) , The Bridge on the River Kwai (1957) and
Lawrnece of Arabia (1962). Hawkins underwent surgery for cancer of the
larynx in 1966. The surgery cost him his voice, but he continued acting - and
chain-smoking - until his death, with his voice dubbed by other actors. Hawkins
received an Emmy nomination for his final role as Justice Gilroy in the TV
adaptation of Leon Uris' QB VII, released one year after his death in
1974. Lightly creased at corners. Fine condition.
