      On television, he made numerous appearances, such as Fred Calvert in the 1958 Perry Mason episode, "The Case of the Daring Decoy". In 1961, he was a guest star in the TV drama Route 66, playing the manager of a traveling group of young women nightclub dancers who mistreats his employees. He co-starred with Peggy Cass in the series The Hathaways, in which they served as "parents" to a trio of performing chimpanzees. In 1963, he was a guest star in an episode called "Fatso" in the TV drama The Fugitive.
      In 1976, he was nominated for a Golden Globe Award for Best Actor in a Motion Picture – Musical or Comedy for his performance in the film The Ritz. In 1981, Weston appeared on Broadway in Woody Allen's comedy The Floating Light Bulb, for which he was nominated for a Tony Award as Best Actor. His other stage appearances include Bells are Ringing in 1956 (with Judy Holliday), The Ritz in 1975, Neil Simon's California Suite (1976) and One Night Stand in 1980.
      Weston co-starred in Alan Alda's 1981 film The Four Seasons, and then reprised his role to star in a television series spinoff on CBS.


      Personal life


      Weston joined the American Theatre Wing in New York with Lee Strasberg. He did not advance far professionally and returned to Cleveland, where he met Marge Redmond, another local actress. The pair relocated to New York and were married there in 1950. Redmond was later noted for her role in the ABC sitcom The Flying Nun. They occasionally appeared together, an example being a 1963 episode of The Twilight Zone titled "The Bard". Redmond and Weston divorced in the 1980s. The couple had no children.
      Weston's second marriage was to Laurie Gilkes, and they had one child together. They were married until his death from lymphoma on May 3, 1996, after a six-year struggle. He was 71 years old.
      Jack was the older brother of Anthony Spinelli, whose birth name was Sam Weinstein and whose first stage name was Sam Weston. The Westons were Jewish.
      Jack was also a lifelong Democrat.
