RIP Stuart Margolin

Staunton, Virginia — Stuart Margolin, Emmy award-winning character actor, director, comedian and musician, died at his home here on Dec. 12. He was 82.

Although he had a long and busy career in movies and television, he is perhaps best remembered for his role as conniving but lovable con man Angel Martin on TV’s “The Rockford Files.”

MSTies will remember him as the Chief in the movie in episode 104- WOMEN OF THE PREHISTORIC PLANET.

The Hollywood Reporter has a look back.

Thanks to Paul for the heads up.
