A short news story
IMDB filmography
The films many people will remember him most from are
The People vs. Larry Flynt (as Chester, one of Larry's staff at Hustler),
Ghost (as the Subway Ghost who trained Patrick Swayze), and
Fast Times at Ridgemont High (as Mr. Vagas who took the class to the mortuary for a field trip).
I also remember him from a first season episode of
Star Trek: The Next Generation
