Allan Rich, the character actor who survived the Hollywood blacklist to work in such films as “Serpico,” “Disclosure” and “Amistad” and on TV’s “Curb Your Enthusiasm,” has died. He was 94. Rich died Saturday of progressive dementia at the Lillian Booth Actors Home in Englewood, New Jersey, his family announced. Rich portrayed NBC president Robert Kintner in Robert Redford’s “Quiz Show” (1994), Demi Moore’s attorney in Barry Levinson’s “Disclosure” (1994) and a judge in Steven Spielberg’s “Amistad” (1997). And on a 2004 episode of HBO’s “Curb Your Enthusiasm,” he played a Holocaust survivor who clashed with a contestant from the TV show “Survivor.” In 1994, he co-founded We Care About Kids, a nonprofit organization that produced live-action educational short films distributed free to middle and high school youths to fight prejudice. His wife of 62 years, Elaine Rich, a personal manager who represented Fran Drescher, Jennifer Jason Leigh and others, died in August 2015 at 81. “He lived large and was quite heroic to many including me when faced with the depths of despair,” Drescher said in a statement. “He had a great intellect and excelled in everything he set his mind to. He was always on the side of good and right.” (SD-Agencies) |
