George Hall (November 19, 1916 – October 21, 2002) was a Canadian theatre, television, and film actor. He made his Broadway debut in 1946 and enjoyed an over 50-year career as a character actor. He was married to Cordelia Ware, also an actor on Broadway, until her death in 1969. Outside of the theatre, he is probably best remembered for his role as the 93-year-old Indiana Jones in the TV series The Young Indiana Jones Chronicles (1992). He also played Ernie Tuttle #2 and John the butler on the television soap opera The Edge of Night and the addled but kind-hearted Mr. Eldridge in the AMC series Remember WENN (1996 - 1998). Hall's film appearances include From the Hip (1987), Johnny Be Good (1988), and Big Daddy (1999).
