Academy Award nominee and versatile film actor James Caan plays Las Vegas' premier surveillance chief Big Ed Deline on NBC's hit series "Las Vegas." Born in the Bronx and raised in Queens, New York, James Caan decided early on in his life to forgo the family meat business in the pursuit of a higher education. James Caan entered Michigan State University at the age of 16 and eventually transferred to Hofstra University to study law. However, during a spring break, James Caan ventured away from education when he auditioned and was accepted to Sanford Meisner's Neighborhood Playhouse. Beginning his stage career appearing in the off-Broadway production of "La Ronde," James Caan went on to make many notable television guest-star appearances early on in his career on such series as "The Untouchables," "Dr. Kildare" and "Get Smart." Perhaps best known for his Oscar-nominated portrayal of Sonny Corleone in the classic "The Godfather," James Caan's other feature-film credits include "For the Boys" (alongside Oscar-nominated Bette Midler), "A Bridge Too Far," "Thief," "Rollerball," "The Way of the Gun," "The Program," "Alien Nation," "Honeymoon in Vegas" opposite Nicolas Cage, "Elf" opposite Will Ferrell, Lars Von Trier's "Dogville" opposite Nicole Kidman and the critically acclaimed "Misery" opposite Kathy Bates. " James Caan's television credits include the movies "A Glimpse of Hell," "Poodle Springs," "Lathe of Heaven" and "The Warden of Red Rock." James Caan also garnered an Emmy Award nomination for his role as football star Brian Piccolo in the original "Brian's Song." James Caan received a Best Actor Award from the Sebastian Film Festival for his performance in Francis Ford Coppola's "The Rain People," as well as the Actor of the Year honor from the National Associate of Theater Owners for "The Gambler." James Caan currently resides in Los Angeles. His birthday is March 26.
