I just read about this on cnn.com. Jaws is one of my all time favorites-I actually wore out a video tape of it.
The article on cnn said that he had been treated for multiple myeloma over the last couple of years, but there is no word if that had anything to do with his death.
Man, what a loss.
Some of the early episodes of Seaquest weren't too bad either. May he rest in peace.
Let's not forget All That Jazz. The smoking he did just in that movie must have knocked five years off his life.
