:guilty: He was in many movies including "Ghost" where he played the Subway Ghost. He died of Lung Cancer in Sicily Italy where he lived. he was born in New York.
 
what a terrible loss!

i recall seeing him on the carson show years ago-he talked about he felt so fortunate to be "non leading man material" :goodvibes. he said that it is every actor's dream to be able to play a variety of roles throughout their life, and that he had been blessed with less than "picture perfect" features that allowed him to play a myriad of characters. he had wonderful stories of training and working with phenominal actors and directors over the years-and said he was truly living out every dream he had ever held in going into the profession.

i'm going to have to pull out "ghost" tomorrow :guilty:
 
I was just thinking about him yesterday, thinking how he was always able to play someone old despite not being that old himself. :(
 
I heard about this this morning on the radio. It wasn't until I saw his photo in the paper that I realized who he was...wow. What a loss.
 

If I am not mistaken, he had battled Cancer after he made 'Ghost' but I saw him in a few movies after that, so I thought he was OK. :guilty: I had no idea he was so syoung either.
