Actor Harris Yulin, an Emmy-nominated actor who appeared in projects including “Frasier” and “Ghostbusters II,” has died. He was 87.
The news was confirmed by Yulin’s manager Sue Leibman, who said in an email to CNN that he passed away June 10 in New York City from a cardiac arrest.
Yulin was a decorated theater actor, playing Hamlet three times off-Broadway and appearing in plays on Broadway including “Hedda Gabler,” “The Price” and “The Visit.” He also taught at NYC’s prestigious Juilliard School for eight years.
Leibman’s email said Yulin was working on new projects with actor and longtime collaborator Stacy Keach up until the time of his death.

If I were going to write a book about the importance of character actors, I would title it: "Hey! It's......That GUY!" 
Great character actors like this seldom are household names. You know the face, but not the name.
R.I.P.
