Although John Barrymore is still considered the greatest American Shakespearean actor of the 20th century, the British-born Evans was the United States' pre-eminent exponent of Shakespeare from 1936 until 1946, during which he appeared in no less than three successive Broadway productions of "Hamlet", as well as a few of the Bard's other plays. He probably made more appearances on the "Hallmark Hall of Fame" (a total of eleven) than any other actor, and his record most likely remains unbroken to this day. Along with actor-managers Walter Hampden and E.H. Sothern, Evans also holds the record for having starred on Broadway in more Shakespeare plays than any other actor. During World War II, he commanded the Special Entertainment Unit which included fellow actors Werner Klemperer and Carl Reiner. At age 88 he lived the longest of the regular or recurring "Bewitched" cast members.
