His performance as Frank Pembleton in Homicide: Life on the Street is one of my favorites of all time- the top ten.

"Age does not bring wisdom. Often it merely changes simple stupidity into arrogant conceit. It's only advantage, so far as I have been able to see, is that it spans change. A young person sees the world as a still picture, immutable. An old person has had his nose rubbed in changes and more changes and still more changes so many times that that he knows it is a moving picture, forever changing. He may not like it--probably doesn't; I don't--but he knows it's so, and knowing is the first step in coping with it."

Dang. That really stinks. I don’t think there’s a role I’ve seen him in I didn’t enjoy. From Glory to Brooklyn 9-9.

I’m sorry to hear of his passing. I really enjoyed him in a show called “Men of a Certain Age” with Ray Romano and Scott Bacula.
He passed way too soon. RIP.

Superb job in Glory. That's when I first became aware of him. I was at one time a big fan of House MD and he really added to the enjoyment of watching that show. Did they list a cause of death? Fox doesn't like my ad blocker. Quite a young age.
