Robert Vaughn sadly has passed away at 83 of Acute Leukemia. He will be missed by so many people This actor did so many roles in movies and television over his long career.
Most people will remember him from The Man From Uncle 1964-68. I loved the show and was sad when it ended. Some of you may have seen him play presidents Woodrow Wilson and Franklin Delano Roosevelt. I enjoyed seeing him play a villain in 1983's Superman 3. I watched him on the last season of The A Team 1986-87.
Recently, he guest starred on television shows Law and Order and Law and Order SVU and was impressive in these roles. I hope all of you watch something he was in, as there are so many to see.

Vaughn was a very prolific actor with over 200 credits. Another recent series he starred on was the British show Hustle about con men.

I agree he was very busy and would have enjoyed seeing him on NCIS. There was talk of it happening before he became to sick. I'll have to watch Hustle. Thanks for mentioning it.

One of the great actors from a classic era. As a child in the 60s I watched him in The Man from U.N.C.L.E. and then in the 70s in a popular British series called The Protectors..
