RIP Andreas Katsulas

According to www.billmumy.com, the marvelous actor, Andreas Katsulas, passed away of cancer.

He was a consumate professional. I once had the chance to observe him on the B5 set between takes. He would sit in a chair and just meditate, thoroughly in character as G’Kar. Cast and crew knew better than to come over and chat with him or make small talk. They respected his space and thorough preparation. And when he was out of make-up, he was approachable, polite, surprisingly soft-spoken and caring. (Kath will tell you her own encounter with him at a Maryland convention.) By the way, for those who don’t know, he also played the one-armed man in the Harrison Ford “The Fugitive.”

He will be missed.

(Followup from GH: One of the first entries ever done on this blog was a photo of Andreas taken with Peter’s wrist cam at I-Con some years back. We noticed it was missing on the site, so I’m restoring that photo here:)
