Conway, Kevin (b. 1942), actor. Conway is a versatile leading man who possesses a seething, belligerent quality that gives his characterizations an edgy persona. A native New Yorker, he trained with Uta
Hagen and at the Dramatic Workshop, acting in regional theatre before making his Manhattan debut in 1969. Conway was first noticed in 1972 as the confused radical college student Mike in
Moonchildren (1972), then was widely applauded the next year for his raucous mental patient Randle Patrick McMurphy in
One Flew Over the Cuckoo's Nest. His other notable performances include the antagonistic drifter Teddy in
When You Comin' Back, Red Ryder? (1973), the itinerant farmhand George in
Of Mice and Men (1974), the boozing brother Jamie in
Long Day's Journey Into Night (1976), the self‐doubting Victorian doctor Frederick Treves in
The Elephant Man (1979), the greedy liquidator Lawrence Garfinkle in
Other People's Money (1989), and businessman Dan Packard in
Dinner at Eight (2002).
