He Toured Moravia And Central Europe, Making A Name For Himself As A Matinee Idol In Theaters In Czechoslovakia, Hungary, Austria And Germany. Notable Among His Performances Was A Turn As Romeo In Max Reinhardt's Staging Of Romeo And Juliet. In The Late 1920S, Lederer Was Lured Into Films By The German Actress Henny Porten And Her Husband.

It Was Irving Thalberg's Plan To Make Lederer The Biggest Star In Hollywood But The Death Of Thalberg Ended This Possibility. Although He Continued To Play Leads Occasionally ? Notably When He Was A Playboy In Mitchell Leisen's Midnight With Claudette Colbert And John Barrymore ? In The Late 1930S Lederer Began To Expand His Character Parts, Even Playing Villains.

During The 1950S, He Served As Honorary Mayor Of Canoga Park. He Would Continue To Make Television Appearances For The Next 10. In His Later Life, Lederer, Who Had Become Very Wealthy, Invested In Real Estate, Especially In The Canoga Park Community (Part Of Which At One Time Included West Hills In 1987). He Was Active In Local And Los Angeles Civic Affairs, Philanthropy And Politics. He Served As Recreation And Parks Commissioner For The City Of Los Angeles, Received Awards For His Efforts To Beautify The City And Was The Honorary Mayor Of Canoga Park For Quite A Time. He Became Involved With Peace Movements, Taught Acting, And Was One Of The Founders Of The American National Academy Of Performing Arts And The International Academy Of Performing Arts.
