A great character actor who could adopt to many roles. He helped make Edge Of Night one of the classiest soaps ever, along with Henry Slesar's great scripts. Same with Radio Mystery Theatre!

Ralph Bonacci

Yes, well said. Everything Kramer did was excellent; he brought that special "something" to all his projects.

Other credits include Pat Abbott on Adventures of the Abbotts and Harry Peters on David Harding Counterspy.

I love this man's voice! He was a talented actor and always very solid, but I always feel that the perfect fit for him is a character who is sophisticated, smart, usually wealthy or powerful, and refined. He really shines best in those roles.

Positively, my favorite Mandel Kramer episode is The Sending. It's so spooky!

Cathy

That is a great one, Cathy. Mandel Kramer was one of the 'superstars' of CBSRMT. One of my favorite episodes is The Man Who Asked For Yesterday.

My one of all time favorite actor

Ricardo

Mandel was perfect for one of the most-used plot devices used on CBSRMT: Ordinary guy with so-so life that for no apparent reason goes straight to Hell overnight, bringing the demise of many of those surrounding him.

ADAM ROACH

Kramer has a great voice and perfect timing. I especially like his X Minus One episodes, which are among the most memorable to me- particularly "The Girls from Earth."

I had the honor and privilege of knowing and working with Mandy (we called him Mandy) from around 1983 until his death. I was an Associate Producer then Producer in the On Air Promotion Department at WNET in New York and we frequently had him do voiceovers for us. I won the PBS National Promotion Award in 1986 for a Nature promo Mandy voiced for me. He was a lovely, kind, warm man and it was my good fortune to have known him.

Larry

I was surprised to hear Mandel Kramer turn up in CBSRMT. I have listened to just about all his Yours Truly Johnny Dollar episodes. His voice is unmistakable.

Jeff

Such lovely comments for a most obvious lovely man. Indeed, his velvety timber was unmistakable and distinctive on many CBSRMT episodes but by far the MOST riveting and stellar voice-acting by Mr. Kramer was, as a fire chief in Playing With Matches (?) where his dialogue in this episode was utterly spellbinding and OSCAR worthy. Treat your ears and set your minds stage...to a golden performance.

Delena

mandells voice was heard on 130 episodes of the mystery theater.an incredible performer.i will always remember him on the cbs tv th edge of night as police chief bill marceau.jimmy boy.

jimmy gonsalves

Very distinctive voice. He sounds like Richard Kiley to me.

Mandel Kramer was a prolific radio actor with hundreds of appearances on dozens of radio programs over a 40+ year period including Gang Busters, the Shadow, Murder at Midnight, Perry Mason, Suspense, X-Minus One and his 14 year role as Harry Peters on Counterspy, but he is best remembered as the last actor to play the title role of Yours Truly, Johnny Dollar. He appeared in film and television including TV's Guiding Light and 83 episodes of The Edge of Night.
