Allan Rich, who was blacklisted in Hollywood early in his career and later found his niche as a versatile character actor in hundreds of roles, died on Aug 22 at the Lillian Booth Actors Home in Englewood, New Jersey, United States. He was 94.
Rich's notable feature film credits included playing district attorney Herman Tauber in Sidney Lumet's Serpico, Judge Juttson in Steven Spielberg's Amistad, and television executive Robert Kintner in Robert Redford's Quiz Show, for which The New York Times reviewed his performance as having "the gruff assurance of a real executive."
