After service with the U.S. Air Force Fred Ward studied acting in New York and Rome, where he worked in mime, dubbed Italian movies, and appeared in two Roberto Rossellini films. Back in America he did much experimental stage work and also had roles on TV. He debuted onscreen in America in 1978, then appeared in several films during the next few years; his screen career took off in 1983, when he appeared in The Right Stuff, Silkwood, and Uncommon Valor. He went on to become a busy screen actor in supporting roles and some leads, but he has yet to appear in a major hit.
