RIP, the one-armed man

Received notice from Mark Krikorian at NRO: top character actor Andreas Katsulas died last Monday at age 59 due to lung cancer.

Katsulas was a "that guy" actor who everyone has seen and recognizes but may not be able to identify. Most notably, he played the one-armed man in the 1993 feature film The Fugitive. He is also a household face to the geek set -- he played Commander Tomalak on Star Trek: The Next Generation and finally obtained a regular TV role as Ambassador G'Kar on Babylon 5. The Tomalak episodes are among the best of the STTNG catalogue.

RIP.
