Biff Elliot (July 26, 1923 – August 15, 2012) was an American actor. He is perhaps best known for his role as popular detective Mike Hammer in the 1953 version of ''I, the Jury'', and as his guest appearance in the ''Star Trek'' episode "The Devil in the Dark".〔http://www.hollywoodreporter.com/news/biff-elliot-mike-hammer-dies-363732〕 ==Early life== Elliot was born Leon Shalek in Lynn, Massachusetts, the son of Susan M. (née Bernstein) and Israel Michael Shalek.〔http://www.mymispoche.com/genealogy/getperson.php?personID=I1145&tree=MM〕 All of his grandparents were Jewish immigrants from Eastern Europe.〔〔http://www.joshshalek.com/?p=4202〕 His father was a former semi-pro baseball player, then retiring and opening up a burlap-bag manufacturing business in Presque Isle, Maine. Elliot had a childhood nickname "Bith" but later adapted it to "Biff" when he went into boxing. When he was 16 his family moved to Presque Isle, where he became involved in boxing and was known as Biff Harris. Eventually Elliot went on to become the North Maine champion and even reached the New England regional championship, but once his mother found out about his fighting she refused to allow him to continue boxing. In 1943 Elliot signed up for the United States Army and was placed in the 34th Infantry Division, later on being stationed to North Africa. Once the war finished Elliot was discharged and decided to return to the University of Maine in 1945. He graduated from Maine in 1949 and moved to New York in hopes of pursuing a writing career. After failing to make out as a writer, Elliot switched his attention to acting, and began taking acting courses at the actors' studio.
