LedZeppfan77 Posted December 26, 2012 Posted December 26, 2012 http://www.usatoday....-actor/1790203/ I always liked him. i am really surprised as I had thought he and Jack Klugman had already passed away? He played a cop sometimes and was iin that embarrasing rolein Tootsie. I really thought Klugman was already deceased? I know Randall is. Charles popped up on some sitcoms here and there also. Quote

ebk Posted December 26, 2012 Posted December 26, 2012 Loved him in Tootsie - one of my favorite movies ever! Also in The Sting. And I had the great pleasure to see him on stage in Cat On a Hot Tin Roof. Wonderful actor and a fine man. Quote
LedZeppfan77 Posted December 26, 2012 Posted December 26, 2012 Yes Chase, I agree he was a fabulous actor. One of those guys that was in so many films and never got enough credit. Here is another great site for access for IMOB and data http://dpsinfo.com/dps/ Quote
