Donald Sutherland
Nathan Templeton on Commander In Chief

Donald Sutherland is one of the most prolific and versatile of motion picture actors, with an astonishing resume of more than one hundred films, ranging from the biting political satire of Robert Altman's "M.A.S.H." to the intimate drama of Robert Redford's "Ordinary People," from the subtle intricacy of Alan Pakula's "Klute" to the eccentric romanticism of Fellini's "Casanova."

Sutherland has also made films with Bernardo Bertolucci ("1900"), Nicolas Roeg ("Don't Look Now"), John Schlesinger ("The Day of the Locust"), Brian Hutton ("Kelly's Heroes" with Clint Eastwood), Paul Mazursky ("Alex in Wonderland"), Robert Aldrich ("The Dirty Dozen"), John Sturges ("The Eagle Has Landed"), Herbert Ross ("Max Dugan Returns"), Louis Malle ("Crackers"), Philip Borsos ("Bethune"), Ron Howard ("Backdraft"), Richard Marquand ("Eye of the Needle"), Euzhan Palcy ("A Dry White Season"), Richard Pearce ("Threshold" -- for which he won the 1983 Genie Award as Best Actor), Oliver Stone ("JFK"), Robert Towne ("Without Limits"), Clint Eastwood ("Space Cowboys"), the film adaptation of John Guare's "Six Degrees of Separation," and a cameo appearance in the National Lampoon classic, "Animal House."

Sutherland was recently seen as Nicole Kidman's father in Anthony Minghella's "Cold Mountain" and as Charlize Theron's father, in F. Gary Gray's "The Italian Job." He will soon appear as Mr. Bennett, Keira Knightley's father in "Pride and Prejudice," in Griffin Dunne's "Fierce People," with Diane Lane, in Robert Towne's "Ask the Dust," with Salma Hayek, in "American Gun" with Linda Cardellini, "An American Haunting" with Sissy Spacek, "Land of the Blind" with Ralph Fiennes and in "Aurora Borealis," with Louise Fletcher and Juliette Lewis.

For television he won Emmy and Golden Globe Awards for his supporting performance in HBO's film "Citizen X." He also won a Golden Globe for his portrayal of Clark Clifford, advisor to President Lyndon B. Johnson, in the HBO historical drama "Path to War," directed by the late John Frankenheimer.

Sutherland starred with Justin Kirk and Julianna Margulies in a sold-out, critically acclaimed engagement of Jon Robin Baitz's "Ten Unknowns" at the Mitzi Newhouse Theatre of Lincoln Center, receiving an Outer Critics Circle Award nomination for Best Actor. He also starred in the London, Toronto and Los Angeles productions of "Enigmatic Variations," an English language translation (by his son, Roeg Sutherland) of Eric-Emmanuel Schmitt's French play.
