Jeffrey Jones

Jeffrey Duncan Jones, born September 28, 1946, in Buffalo, New York, is a character actor whose dead-pan expression and distinctive face have made him a staple in both film and theater. After studying acting in London and the United States, he began his career in the 1970s, gaining prominence for roles in "Amadeus," "Beetlejuice," and "Ferris Bueller's Day Off." His performances often inject humor through reactions rather than dialogue, and he has received Tony Award nominations for his stage work. However, his career was marred by a 2002 conviction for possession of child pornography, which led to two years of probation.
