Sterling Walter Hayden (born Sterling Relyea Walter; March 26, 1916 -- May 23, 1986) was an American actor who became famous in the post-war era for playing dark anti-heroes and villains in many FilmNoir and crime movies. His imposing height (6 feet 5 inches) and incredible intensity made him a powerful screen presence which lent great power to the many characters he played, several of whom struggled to balance their humanity with their violent tendencies and past.
Hayden was born in New Jersey and as a young man he traveled out west and worked in many jobs. He worked for several years as a sailor on large and small vessels. Eventually he even became skipper of his own square rigger at the age of 22. He also found work as a Print Model and eventually Hollywood caught attention and offered him a contract. He made his film debut in 1941. He appeared in only a few titles before he joined the army and served as a sailor and OSS Agent during UsefulNotes/WorldWarII. He was active in shipping supplies to partisans in Yugoslavia, and even saw action in the Naples-Foggia Campaign in Italy. Hayden rose to the rank of First Lieutenant and won the Silver Star for his services and received a personal commendation from Marshall UsefulNotes/JosipBrozTito. During his time in Italy, serving alongside the Partisans, many of whom were communists, Hayden became inspired by their ideology and joined the Communist Party. However, during the RedScare, he would testify to [=HUAC=] to safeguard his career, an action he regretted for the rest of his life but felt was necessary at the time.

His BreakthroughHit as an actor was Creator/JohnHuston's ''Film/TheAsphaltJungle'' which established his familiar persona as a hard-edged troubled anti-hero who was sympathetic but self-destructive. He became a staple of crime films following that, which kept him typecast even if he would occassionally appear in unusual films like Creator/NicholasRay's ''Johnny Guitar''. Following ''The Killing'', he would appear in another Creator/StanleyKubrick film in his iconic and trope-making role as GeneralRipper in ''Dr. Strangelove''.
