Brad Sullivan (born November 18, 1931) is an American actor.
Born in Chicago, Illinois, Sullivan served in the Korean War and then attended the University of Maine. Nearly twenty years later he made his screen debut in Parades, followed by an appearance in a CBS television movie based on the David Rabe play Sticks and Bones. The subject matter was so controversial half the network's affiliates refused to broadcast the film [1].
Sullivan's feature film credits include The Sting, Slap Shot, The Island, Ghost Story, Tin Men, The Untouchables, Funny Farm, The Abyss, True Colors, The Prince of Tides, Sister Act 2: Back in the Habit, Jerky Boys: The Movie, and The Fantasticks.
Sullivan portrayed Artemas Ward in the 1984 mini-series George Washington and Judge Roy Bean in the 1991 television movie The Gambler Returns: The Luck of the Draw. Additional television credits include Miami Vice, The Equalizer, and Law & Order. He also had recurring roles on I'll Fly Away and NYPD Blue.
Sullivan made his Broadway debut in a 1977 revival of The Basic Training of Pavlo Hummel. He also appeared in Working, for which he was nominated for the Drama Desk Award for Outstanding Featured Actor in a Musical, The Caine Mutiny Court Martial, Orpheus Descending, a stage adaptation of On the Waterfront, and several productions for Joseph Papp at The Public Theatre.
Sullivan retired in 2000. He lives on the Upper West Side of Manhattan.
