He also played Lewis Morris of New York in the musical film 1776, and Everett Scovill, a thinly disguised portrait of Charles Manson's attorney Irving Kanarek, in the television movie, Helter Skelter.

Interested in building a career? If so, NEVER accept any role that doesn't offer at least TWO of the following: 1. Big money (above scale); 2. Top of the show credit; 3. Role which displays your talent to its fullest. REMEMBER, the role must meet any two of the above (crap role, big bucks, guest star billing; low budget, star billing, great role; great money, great role, end crawl billing).
