Robert Laman Webber (October 14, 1924 – May 19, 1989) was an American actor. He established himself as a reliable supporting player in a screen career that spanned nearly 50 years, with a “sleek appearance and clenched-jaw look which made him believable as the elegant businessman of sleazy character.” Notable roles include Juror No. 12 in 12 Angry Men (1957) and Brigadier General James Denton in The Dirty Dozen (1967).
