Full Brion James Biography
James was born in Redlands, California, and spent his early years in Beaumont, California, where his parents, Ida Mae and Jimmy James, owned and operated a movie theater. After graduating from high school in 1962, James attended San Diego State University as a Theater Arts major. Migrating to New York, James immersed himself in the theater scene, taking on bit roles here and there. At this time he began what would become a life-long friendship with Tim Thomerson. The two would end up serving in the Armed Forces together as cooks.
In 1994, he played a grouchy sponsor who became a victim of the gruesome goings-on during a 1939 radio show in the film Radioland Murders. Another of his most memorable roles came near the end of his career; as the amiable General Munro in The Fifth Element (1997)
James died in 1999 from a heart attack in Malibu, California. He appeared in five feature films which were released following his death. The last of these was Phoenix Point (2003). |
