He attended Tulsa Central High School and later Northwestern University and New York City's Neighborhood Playhouse School of the Theatre. After graduating, he starred in two plays: George Bernard Shaw's 'Candida' alongside Jane Cowl and Emlyn Williams' 'The Corn Is Green' alongside Ethel Barrymore. After four years with the United States Army Signal Corps in World War II, Randall found work at Montgomery County's Olney Theatre before heading back to New York City to continue his acting career.During the 1940s, Randall appeared mostly in supporting roles in Broadway plays. He was given his first leading role in 1955 with 'Inherit the Wind'. Randall managed to nab a Tony Award nomination for his starring role in 1958's 'Oh, Captain!', although the play itself bombed.His first role in a feature film came about in 1957, playing a supporting character in the Ginger Rogers vehicle Åh, män! Åh, kvinnor! (1957). The same year, he received a Golden Globe nomination for his role as the titular writer for television advertising in the satirical comedy Åh, en så'n karl! (1957). Randall also lent his support to the three famous Doris Day-Rock Hudson pairings Jag hatar dej, älskling (1959), En pyjamas för två (1961), and Skicka inga blommor (1964), securing Golden Globe nominations for the former two. Randall worked quite prolifically throughout the 1960s; notable roles include a public relations employee in the Marilyn Monroe romantic musical Låt oss älska (1960), seven quite different characters in the oddball 7 Faces of Dr. Lao (1964), iconic detective Hercule Poirot in Den mystiska blondinen (1965), an architect who inadvertently releases a djinn in the fantasy Panik på sta'n (1964), and a man who lives in an underwater house with his family in the adventure Hello Down There (1969).Randall's first major television role was as a history teacher on Mister Peepers (1952); he joined the cast in 1955. After the series ended, he had numerous guest spots on such shows as The United States Steel Hour (1953), The Alfred Hitchcock Hour (1962), Love, American Style (1969), and Here's Lucy (1968). He wouldn't return to TV in a major role until 1970, when he played sardonic neat freak Felix Unger in ABC's The Odd Couple (1970) opposite Jack Klugman. He earned Emmy nominations for each season, finally winning in 1975 for its last. He later starred in The Tony Randall Show (1976) as a Philadelphia judge, and Alla älskar Sidney (1981) as a gay artist. The former earned him one Golden Globe nomination and the latter earned him two. He reunited with Jack Klugman for the 1993 TV movie The Odd Couple: Together Again (1993).Both during and after his stints on TV, Randall had small roles in a few well-known films such as Allt du skulle vilja veta om sex, men varit för skraj att fråga om (1972), King of Comedy (1982), My Little Pony - Ett äventyr (1986), and Gremlins 2 - Det nya gänget (1990).
