Jon Cyper made his television debut in 1957,
at the age of 25,
playing Prince Charming in
Rodgers and Hammerstein's Cinderella
with Julie Andrews.
Jon is probably best known for his role
on Hill Street Blues (1981-87)
where he played Chief of Police Fletcher Daniels.
Jon did star spots on Dynasty, Marcus Welby, Jr.,
Santa Barbara, Knots Landing, McMillan and Wife,
and several others.
His first appearance as a villain...Frank Tanner,
in the movie Valdez is Coming, with Burt Lancaster.
Major Dad (1990-93)
with Gerald Rainey...
And in the nooks and crannies,
Jon did Broadway.
From Man of La Mancha and 1776,
to The Night of the Iguana and Coco...
here he is (center, with Daniel H. Jenkins) in Big.
I absolutely love Mr. Cypher. He's a triple threat really. He sings, he acts, he dances. What more could one ask for in such a wonderful man.
