Kinda mean to pit father against son.

Where is your last pic from, Cato?  It's not familiar.

Another famous Klemperer was their cousin, the diarist Victor Klemperer.

Hans Conried as mad, manic musician Dr. Terwilliker in The 5,000 Fingers of Dr. T by Dr. Seuss.

I did find this lady:

Joyce Klemperer who makes movies for non-profit organizations:

According to IMDB, he was on an episode of Hogan's Heroes.

"To get a Italian officer to defect, they use pizza to tempt him."

Ah, yes, that sounds like the sophisticated humor we all came to expect from that show!

(HH is one of a tiny handful of shows of which I've seen every episode. Which is pretty weird since I'm 23...)

Klemperer the Younger appeared at least once in a MET broadcast, as the jailer in Die Fledermaus.
IIRC, he started out as a musician, then switched to acting.
