Herd was born in Boston, Massachusetts, the son of Katherine and Richard Herd Sr., who was a train engineer. He made his film debut in Hercules in New York (1970), and at one point served as 3rd National Vice President of the Screen Actors Guild. Herd's first major film role was in the thriller The China Syndrome alongside Jane Fonda, Jack Lemmon and Michael Douglas, where he played the character Evan McCormack, the corrupt Chairman of the California Gas & Electric Board. This role helped make him well-known outside the United States.
In addition to science fiction, he was a regular as Captain Dennis Sheridan on T. J. Hooker from 1982 to 1983 (he continued to appear on the series sporadically until 1984), and appeared on Seinfeld as Mr. Wilhelm, George Costanza's boss at the Yankees. Guest appearances included M*A*S*M*A*S*H, The Rockford Files, The Feather and Father Gang, Golden Girls, Starsky and Hutch, Quantum Leap, The A-Team, Midnight Caller, Hart to Hart, NYPD Blue, Pacific Blue, and JAG.
In 2012 he played the character Judge Paul Landsman in the Tv series CSI: Miami, episode titled "Rest in Pieces".
