"Tom Aldredge, an Emmy-winning actor who for five decades was ubiquitous on stage and screen, seen in everything from Sondheim to “The Sopranos,” died on Friday in Tampa, Fla. He was 83.
The cause was lymphoma, his manager, Matthew Sullivan, said.
A lean, beaky Midwesterner, Mr. Aldredge seemed to have stepped out of a Grant Wood painting. It was a mien that foreordained a life as a character actor — in particular a life of portraying satisfyingly cantankerous older men"
this is him in american astronaut, and if you've not seen it but are curious, watch it!
his is one of my favourite characters in the film. Sad times
