He was one of my favorites. They barely touched on some of his movies, but the man was a giant because getting into the movies as a black man in the early 1960's was not an easy thing to do. I was just thinking about him the other day, wondering if he was still around. I'd heard nothing about him for at least 2 years or more.
The article doesn't say how he died but the man was 94 - - I sure hope they aren't going to try to label him as a covid death. I hope his family is astute enough NOT to let that happen.
