Anthony ‘Tony’ Howard Goldwyn was born on May 20, 1960, in Los Angeles, California. The son of actress Jennifer Howard and film producer Samuel Goldwyn Jr., and grandson of legendary film producer Samuel Goldwyn, he inherited a deep connection to the entertainment industry. Goldwyn pursued higher education at Hamilton College, Brandeis University where he earned a Bachelor of Fine Arts degree, and the London Academy of Music and Dramatic Art. His early career saw him honing his craft in guest roles on television in the mid-1980s, gaining foundational experience before his breakthrough.
Goldwyn’s acting career took a significant turn with his role as the villain Carl Bruner in the 1990 fantasy thriller “Ghost,” which was a major box office success and earned him a Saturn Award nomination for Best Supporting Actor. This role established him as a recognizable talent. He continued to build a diverse filmography, including playing Harold Nixon in Oliver Stone’s 1995 film “Nixon” and providing the voice for the titular character in Disney’s animated “Tarzan” (1999). Goldwyn also made a notable impression on television, portraying an HIV-positive man in “Designing Women” and astronaut Neil Armstrong in the HBO miniseries “From the Earth to the Moon.”
Beyond acting, Goldwyn has cultivated a successful career as a director and producer. He made his feature directorial debut with “A Walk on the Moon” in 1999, which received critical acclaim. His directorial work extends to numerous television series, including “Dexter,” “Justified,” and “Scandal,” where he also starred as President Fitzgerald Grant III for seven seasons. His film “Conviction” (2010), which he produced and directed, garnered a SAG Award nomination for its lead actress, Hilary Swank, and received a Freedom of Expression honor from the National Board of Review. Goldwyn is also actively involved in philanthropic endeavors, serving as an Ambassador for Stand Up To Cancer and a board member for Americares, the Innocence Project, and the MPTF Foundation.
