Oliver Conant

Oliver Conant (born November 15, 1955) is an American actor.

Born in New York City, New York, Conant appeared as "Benji" in the 1971 coming-of-age drama, Summer of '42 and the Class of '44, appearing in both with Gary Grimes and Jerry Houser as a trio of adolescent boys. Of the three, only Houser's career continued into the '90s.

He was also in Jean Kerr's 1973 Broadway farce Finishing Touches, with Barbara Bel Geddes, Robert Lansing, James Woods, and others.

After a three decades or so hiatus from acting, Conant re-emerged on off and off-off Broadway stages in productions ranging from Gene Ruffini's dystopian Homeland, Anne Fizzard's back-stage comedy Good Opinions, and Tuvia Tenenbom's absurdist satire Kabbalah. He serves as Producing Director for Queens Shakespeare Inc, a new classical repertory company based in Flushing, New York. Conant will be appearing in the NICU'S SPOON production of Elizabeth Rex in April 2008 in New York City.
