Excellent actor, and one who will always be remembered due to Law & Order's eternal life in reruns. Loved him in Running on Empty as well, where you definitely could feel a lifetime of sadness and lost possibilities between him and Christine Lahti. I also have a good deal of respect for the fact that he willingly gave up career possibilities due to his personal religious convictions.
WE tv is doing a marathon on Tuesday of five Law & Order episodes:
"Terminal"
"Burned"
"Under the Influence"
"Bad Girl"
"Monster"
I've remembered that final wordless shot of "Terminal" ever since I saw it, and it's been years.

Obviously most prominently remembered for Law and Order, but he was excellent in Billy Bathgate -- runner-up at the NY critics that year. And his scene in Running on Empty was widely seen as the film's highlight.
