[sprite75]

Harris Yulin passed yesterday at the age of 87

Harris Yulin, the veteran character actor whose many film and TV credits included Scarface, Ghostbusters II, Star Trek: Deep Space Nine, and Ozark, died of cardiac arrest Tuesday in New York City. He was 87.

His manager, Sue Leibman, confirmed the news to Entertainment Weekly.

In a career spanning six decades, Yulin played more than 100 roles on stage and screen. Born Nov. 5, 1937, in Los Angeles, he made his New York stage debut in a 1963 production of Next Time I'll Sing to You and landed his first screen role in the 1970 satire End of the Road, opposite James Earl Jones and Stacy Keach.

After making his Broadway debut in 1980's Watch on the Rhine, Yulin would make several returns in productions including The Diary of Anne Frank, The Price, and Hedda Gabler. He also found success in film and TV, with roles in 1975's Night Moves, 1976's St. Ives, and 1979's Steel.

I remember him the most from his appearing as Aamin Marritza in the DS9 episode Duet.  That was the best episode of the whole damn first season of DS9.
