In an episode of "The Greatest American Hero" that first aired on 11 November 1981, actor Russell Martin played the "Secretary of Defense." Casper W. Weinberger was the real-life Secretary of Defense at the time, so one might claim that as an appearance of Casper W. Weinberger as a "character." It is not clear, however, to what extant Mr. Martin was actually meant to be playing the real-life Secretary, versus simply playing a generic role of a man in that same high office.
