William Duell
William Duell (August 30, 1923 – December 22, 2011) was an American actor and singer. He was known for his roles as Andrew McNair in the musical ''1776'', Jim Sefelt in the 1975 film ''One Flew Over the Cuckoo's Nest'', and Johnny the Shoe Shine Guy on the 1982 crime comedy series ''Police Squad!'' Described as a short, odd-looking character actor with a Shakespearean background, he had many minor roles in plays, films and TV series. His last work was a cameo in the 2003 film ''How to Lose a Guy in 10 Days''.
==Early life and career==
He was born George William Duell in 1923 in Corinth, New York, to E. Janet (Harrington) and Leon George Duell, an employee of the International Paper Company.〔http://www.filmreference.com/film/54/William-Duell.html〕 Sometime in his youth, his mother legally changed his name to Darwin William Duell. Duell never cared for his first name and thus always went by his middle name, William. Duell graduated from the Green Mountain Junior College (now Green Mountain College) (Vermont), Illinois Wesleyan University, and Yale University. A theater scholarship at Green Mountain College is named after him.
He portrayed Congressional custodian Andrew McNair in the Broadway version of ''1776'', which made him the one actor who stayed throughout the entire run of the show and was never understudied; he also played the part in the 1972 film of the musical. In the 1997 Broadway revival of ''1776'' Duell was a replacement member of the cast, filling the role of Caesar Rodney after Michael McCormick took on the role of John Adams.〔(【引用サイトリンク】 work=Trivia )〕 In 2010, he appeared in a one-night only staged reading of ''Evening Primrose'' by Stephen Sondheim.
