Executive summary: Streets of San Francisco Military service: US Army Air Corps (WWII) Karl Malden is an actor famous for his craggy face, huge nose, and for saying "Don't leave home without it", his long-running line as TV pitchman for American Express.
He won an Oscar for A Streetcar Named Desire (1951), and an Emmy as Detective Lieutenant Mike Stone on Streets of San Francisco. Malden also played Gen. Omar Bradley opposite George C. Scott's Patton. In Baby Doll (1956), he played a horny husband whose gorgeous wife (Carroll Baker) refused to have sex with him. The film was condemned as near pornography by the Catholic church, for its shocking portrayal of young lust, but by present standards it's hardly titillating.
